Santa

Evening peeps

I think I am in for a rough ride this week with my son, he hates being back home and badly missing London.  Yesterday, I got in from work and all he had done was laze around in bed all day, he hadn't even had a shower.  By the evening, he was moaning about wanting to go out, of course, in London this isn't a problem, but in Sittingbourne there isn't anything open apart from Asda.  A shouting match followed because my Mum wouldn't drive him down there.  I know it sounds bad, but if he hates being here that much, he should just go back to London early.


Anyway, to relax after all the stress, I sat and made a Christmas card ready for next year.  The digital stamp is from Sheri Baldy and it has been coloured using Copics and ProMarkers.


Other materials used are:

White card stock
Red card stock
Green card stock
Gold Centura Pearl card stock
Patterned paper
Die'sire Poinsettia die set

Hit The Target

Evening peeps

The Wednesday before Christmas and I have a day off from the mania at work.  The bulk stock is just starting to hit the store, so it has been all hands on deck to just it onto the shelves.  I'm not looking forward to Thursday and Friday, if it's anything like past years, we won't be able to move.


Anyway, this card is for an order from a colleague at work.  I wasn't happy with the original card that I made and decided to do another.  It is for her son, who will be 15 on Christmas Day and we decided that as he had just taken up Archery, that would be a good theme.

White card stock

Penguin Pets

I finally got round to putting up my new bed yesterday.  It looks so nice and the mattress is really thick with a memory foam top on it.  I set two alarms last night just in case I got so comfortable that I slept through it.  How wrong was I, I hardly slept at all and this morning my back and arm were playing up more then usual.  I only hope it's because I'm not use to the mattress yet.
