Right now I should be in full Christmas mode, cooking, wrapping, stamping and addressing cards, making gifts and generally bouncing around full of the festive spirit!

However I am not, last week I hurt my collar bone……..a minor insignificant thing really, not sure when or how it happened, one minute I was fine, the next I had a lump and plenty of pain! A trip to the doctors so far hasn’t answered any questions and although the anti-inflammatories are helping I have been unable to do most of the things I want and need to do for over a week!

Stamping hurts, typing hurts, wrapping presents hurts, I think you are getting the message, everything I try and do hurts and it has made me more than a little cranky! Ask Brian and the kids…….!

So I’m making this a quick post using cards I made a few weeks ago and I will be back as soon as I can with some NEW things to share with you, I think that has been the hardest thing, I have new stamps and products that are still in the box because I can’t do anything with them, and they arrived last week!

So 2 quick cards today, both birthday cards, I love being able to use things in different ways, on the first card I have used the ornament punch and made it into a vase, simple, speedy and fabulous!

The second card uses the same sentiment from Curly Cute.  This time I have used an acrylic block to make a shadow background, looks like a stormy sky!

Now you have until Wednesday to place your orders with me to ensure you get them in time for the big day, I can of course send out gift vouchers for another week after that.

Advance warning, you need to make sure you are on my email – mailing list to hear first all of the information about the new products, catalogues and Sale-a-bration and perhaps a Boxing day surprise !!!!!!!  There is a link on the right hand side or email me and I will add you to the list.

That’s all for me for now, I’ll be back as soon as I can.

Happy Stampin’
