Yesterday while Nathan was in my room photoing my cards he swung the camera round and took a photo under my table. Look what he found! Patches is our faithful Jack Russell x, who follows me everywhere.Since I have moved into my new space a bed has appeared under my table and when I am in my room that is where Patches will be found.Last night I was working on some Easter bunny cards that I had coloured earlier, and thought they would benefit from a bit of glitter on the ears and tummy so I liberally threw around the glitter forgetting that the air conditioner was on, and a duct right above my head. Well , I thought I had been caught in a snow storm . Finally when the glitter settled I saw the extent of the mess. Who knew so much glitter is in one of those Martha Stewart bottles. Even today Patches is still glittering, and the room will never recover. It is well and truly christened a girly craft room, and not a boys room any more!More cards tomorrow.. Til then…..

Off to create some more! Til tomorrow….

Bobunny xmas
Tonights group of cards uses Bobunny’ s xmas paper – I told myself I didn’t need any more xmas paper but when I saw this sheet I just had to have it! It goes very well with Stampin Up Cherry Cobbler cardstock, and the music paper is from Tim Holtz Seasonal stash.I cut the images out of the paper. Today was Market day, and although there were quite a few people around, no-one was buying anything. I did alright, as my regulars all came to see me, but some stalls went home with all they came with!Anyway I will have a break from the market next month, and go back at the end of January. I can sort out my stock, and start fresh for the new year. Til tomorrow….
