HUGS AND KISSES

Hi Everyone

Well is everyone as confused as I am?  It is taking me ages to work out what day it is!!

Just one and a bit more days left before my lovely Hubby goes back to work.  When he broke up we felt like we were going to have ages together and get lots done .. . but the holiday has disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Tomorrow will be Christmas demolition day.  All the Christmas decorations and the tree will be taken down tomorrow and put back into the roof  .. .. ..  I hate it when Christmas disappears and I always go on a little "mini depression" that all the excitment is over for another year :-(

Oh well!!!

So here is my share of the day.







This used:

Image and Sentiment:  Penny Black "40-040" Purr-fect Message
Backing Papers:  Aimee Asher "Love Story" (some gorgeous papers in this set)
Josy Rose:  Nail Heads
Distress Ink:  Tea Due
ProMarkers
Ribbon from the stash box

Not much to this creation but I love the image and papers.  I think it will be a really useful stamp (it is one of the new Slapsticks from Penny Black) and I can see it being used for birthdays and valentine creations and possibly even get well and anniversary cards.

I hope that you have all had a good day today and I will catch you again tomorrow.

Love

    Love that stamp, makes such a gorgeous little card Jules. I'm the opposite of you, I love to get the tree up but love it even more when it comes down:) Like to get all the dust of Christmas cleaned away and start the new year nice and fresh:) Wish my health would freshen up a bit though:(

    Hi Jules, First of all I want to wish you a very Happy New Year and may 2011 bring you everything good in life. I know exactly what you mean about everywhere looking dreary now. All our lights and decorations (inside and out) went back in the loft yesterday too. Well, all except the two sets of twinkly white lights that my Hubby (who pretends to be very Bah Humbug) has repositioned around the pergola outside the back door, Lol! His excuse is that they'll be nice in the summer when we have a bbq!!!! It that's the case, why are they flashing away right now, Ha! Ha!

    Love the card as always.

    Hugs
    Lesley Xx
