MERRY AND BRIGHT

Hi Everyone

I hope your day has gone well .. .. the weather has been a real mixture here.  Sunshine, rain, hail and strong winds.  I can't believe this time last week we were sweltering in the sun.

But never mind the gardens will be enjoying the extra moisture.

Today has been a "cooking for the freezer" day and so Mr Heart and I have spent most of the day in the kitchen.  

But I did sneak in the first of my Christmas cards for June this evening, which is for taking over to the Christmas Kickstart Challenge where the theme for this month is "Tag along".




This used:

Image:   Sizzix stamp and die set "659376" Holiday Joy
Tag:  Die-namics "Traditional Tags Stax"
Sentiment:  Lili of the Valley
Memento Dew Drop Ink Pads:  Rich Cocoa and Bamboo Leaves
Ribbon and Metallic Twine
My Trusty Sewing Machine
Backing papers:  All from my Christmas Snippets Box

and that is me for today.

Running a bit late today so time to snack on some of our yummy cooking .. .. and get the rest into the freezer.

Catch you again tomorrow .. .. .. I hope!

  8. A fantastic card Jules I love it. Well done for stocking the freezer with meals. I like to keep stuff thats ready prepared in the freezer, but never quite manage to get hubby to help, I must be doing something wrong.

  13. It's been crazy weather here too Jules, some bad storms, winds and tornado watches. Sweltering one minute and cool the next. Crazy is the right word for the world today and the weather. Love that you and Mr. Hart had a "cooking for the freezer day" together! I am in love with your Christmas card Jules, the colors are fabulous and they draw the eye right in. A great tag you have made as well, it is so peaceful and serene. I love the heart on the stag's rear end, so cute! Hugs, Brenda
