Well so far I seem to be ahead with my Christmas cards, which until now was unheard of. This is Millie (with snowball) I decided to use green for the coat and hat, and Im quite pleased with the result.. (which is very unusual for me, as like most crafters Im very self critical) Coloured with promarkers, and stamped sentiment is from SU

thank you for looking

Back from holidays



It seems ages ago, I was last here. Ive been on holiday for the last 3 weeks. first week was spent with crafting friends in Burnham on sea, where we all had a fantasic time, a little crafting, a lot of laughs, and a few shopping trips, (for craft goodies of course) my thanks to Viv, Pam, Jackie, and Sandra for your company, one memory that will stick in my mind forever, was the poor boy who tried to take our order for dinner.. after a little highjinx he was shaking.. poor lad.

Then two weeks in Zante, which was like going home. we stayed in Kalamki, a small village, a few bar/resturaunts and a great beach, which is famous for its breeding grounds for the loggerhead turtles. the weather wasnt as good as we would have like but we had a great time anyway.

The photo is of Banana beach, which is fairly unpopulated even in the height of the season

Its nice to be back though
