a bit of colouring....

I just could not resist the new Francoise Read Christmas gnomes....this one is Christmas Tree Gnome...coloured with my trusty old promarkers and lots of glossy accents...

Thanks for popping by today ,stay safe and well.

making some christmas boxes.....

 I know its only July but I felt likr doing something a bit different...

and these were fun to make from a crafters companion die set from last year....

Its still too hot for me and we haven't had the promised rain yet so fingers crossed it comes soon and cools down...

Thanks for popping by today and I hope you are keeping safe and well.

well I don't remember by this...

 I really don't but there it was in my holly section of dies unopened....

its called Decorative Holly accents by Sue Wilson....makes quiet a nice 5x7 card on its own....

Its still hot here but at least not as bad at night ....I hope you are keeping well out in blog land...take care.

time for a snowglobe....

 oh my goodness its sweltering here I can only manage a short morning of crafting before my room gets too hot...I know it will not last long but I really do melt in the heat...

all the dies and stamps are from tattered lace from a good few years ago....I do like to get them out at least once every year....

I hope you are keeping safe and well we are just back from a visit to the supermarket and was hearten to see everyone still wearing their masks and be sensible in the shop...maybe the goverment is right and we can be trusted to be cautious....I would like to think so....

Thanks for popping by today....take care.
