THERE WAS LOTS TO SHARE TODAY!!!

Hi Everyone

Sorry I am late today .. .. it has taken me a lifetime to up-load my photographs.  Perhaps Mr Blogger is busy writing his Christmas cards!!!  Of course he would choose to write them on the day I want to up-load lots and lots of pictures!!!!

I have been on a huge clear up campaign after the excitement and mess we made yesterday.  We all had a lovely day - but then again we always do when we are together.

The House of Hearts looked like a bomb had hit it when I came downstairs this morning .. .. so I have spent the day cleaning, clearing and putting things away.

If only it could stay this straight until Christmas .. .. but I know there is no way that will happen!!!

Anyway,  I might be late but I have lots to share.

Firstly, my creation of the day.  I made this card using a sketch from over at Mojo Monday.  It is only for fun .. .. but I love the sketch very much.






This used:

Image:  Hero Art "F5158" Heart Winged Butterfly
Sentiment:  Woodware Clear Stamps "FRCL 167" Pretty Labels
Backing Papers:  All Papermania Exquisite Paper Collection
Josy Rose:  Nail Heads
Diamond Stickles
Ribbon from the stash box

Here is the sketch that I followed (I will definitely be using this one again!! ) :



Now I am supposed to be sharing some pictures of the labels my playmates made yesterday.  Each chose their favourite for me to post on here.  

Sorry playmates .. Mr Blogger is taking so long to up-load the pictures that I am giving in for today.  It was taking longer to up-load them than it took me to make my card at the start of this post.

But I promise to share them  -  hopefully tomorrow if Mr Blogger has finished writing his cards .. .. talking of which .. .. I still have that pleasurable task on my "get it done" list!!!

My lovely hubby has lots of holiday to use up so will finish work on Wednesday evening this week .. .. we will get nearly three lovely weeks together over Christmas.  I can't wait .. .. though I have warned him that I will have lots to do .. ..  there is only him on holiday!!  LOL!!!

This means we will be able to put the tree up together this year and do all the "run up to Christmas" things together.  It is going to be really special!

I hope everyone is ok.  I know a few blog buddies are poorly at the moment.  Please get better quickly so that you can enjoy Christmas.

Love
