CHRISTMAS LOVE

Hi Everyone

Just popping by to wish everyone a really lovely Christmas.

I hope it is a special time for you all, and one you can collect special memories from to look back on in years to come.

Our big family day is Saturday .. .. so I am going to enjoy a few days of  "calm before the storm" .. .. starting in around six hours time when hopefully everything I want to get done will be done.

Santa won't be bringing me anything craft related at all .. .. in fact I am hoping for a manual that will teach me how to switch off, stop thinking, chill and be lazy!!  Something I find very hard to do.  My brain always seems to be on overdrive.

I can never sit and do nothing .. .. but I will try .. .. very, very hard  LOL!!


My crafty share to wish you all a really happy Christmas, filled with love, is something I have created using Serif Craft Artist Professional (something I treated myself to a little while ago but haven't had time to play with properly yet).  I know it leaves a lot to be desired but it isn't bad for a first attempt.  I was quite proud of being able to add my curtains behind the windows .. .. but sadly I couldn't make it look like I had a decent front door LOL!!!  Mr Heart said I will just have to pretend it is open !!

 It has all been super busy here on the wedding front recently .. .. hence the lack of posts and blog visiting .. .. but hopefully I will catch up soon.  

 In the meantime I would just like to thank everyone for all your support, comments, cards, emails and friendship.  All very, very much appreciated.

 Have a wonderful special few days everyone.

 Love and Christmas hugs

    I have the Craft Artist but have not yet ventured into using it as it should be used.
    Thanks so much for your comment and I have to say that I have loved your cards and so pleased that I found you.

    Well done to master a new skill in this busy season! It looks wonderful and I agree the door is open. It certainly looks that way from over here!

    Merry Christmas and best wishes for a wonderful Saturday. We will have our present opening and family dinner on Boxing Day so will have a quiet and relaxed Christmas Day.

    Well, you are head and shoulders over any skills that I might have with the program, Jules, and I think it is beautiful! I also like Mr. H's suggestion, especially since I feel like your door would always be open to everyone!

    Have a happy Christmas with your family this weekend! I wish you all the best in the new year!! Hugs, Darnell
