This is another page for Mop's ABC pages.

When Xmas is over, I'll pop my christmas presents that I made for family on here. I just know a few family members read this, so I don't want to spoil the surprise. :) Hi Pete!! :)

Finally finished!!

After months and months of no time and a dead hard-drive, I have put together a photo album for my brother and his now wife. These were engagement photos. They are now married, so that's how long it has been.

I am going to be sending for it, and hopefully we can get it here by Christmas as a little extra for them.

I really hope they like it. I think they probably have given up on me, since it was such a long time ago!

A christmas present and a new addition to the wardrobe.

The other day for a friend's Christmas present, I made some homemade hot chocolate in a jar. It isn't very obvious in the photo, but it looked like sand art! I tied a festive ribbon around the jar and I think it looked quite good. I mean how complicated does decorating a jar of hot chocolate have to be? LOL

I also owned this dress that was quite nice, but didn't look that good on me. It looked like a potato sack. So on the advice of my fashion guru, I cut the bottom off and made it into a long top.
Forgive the blah appearance but this was taken after a night out.

2 more pages and a kaffuffle.

First of all - one of the projects I was working on for SIL and DB for their Christmas present didn't work for some strange reason. The paper all warped and went horrible - and not fixable. So I quickly had to think of something that I could whip up in 2 weeks that is nice.

After some inspiration from a friend, I am going to make a table cloth and some placemats made from christmas fabric. That is the only thing I can think of making at this late stage.

I'm almost done with the Christmas presents which is good!

I worked on 2 more pages for Mop's ABC's. I'm pretty happy with these. I love how different each quarter is. I love the embelishments I am using and the different techniques I have been learning and applying.

Here they are:

2 pages for Mop's Album

I've started a small project for Mop's album. This is going to be an overview of who she is in 2008. It's an ABC album. I'm quite happy with it so far. I have a few more pages to finish, but here are the first 2 completed.

Oh Christmas tree! Oh Christmas tree!

Not exactly a craft, but I thought I would put it in anyway.

This is our Christmas tree.

This is without the flash so it looks a bit blurry - shakey hands. (Stupid asthma medications!)

And this is a little arrangement I made for the coffee table.

Now to get on with the presents!

Another Christmas Layout

Last one I promise!!
I've been doing a digi-download frenzy, grabbing all these awesome Christmas kits and having really nothing to make with them.

This LO is for E's album - it's his Photoshoot for the 2008
