Chocolate muffin and roses

My little artist, Kendra drew me some red roses and a chocolate muffin. She had a little help from me with the muffin, but the roses she did all by herself. She is such a creative little girl - note the mixed medium she used: felt tip pens and wax crayons! We've spent a lot of time in the holidays colouring and drawing. She loves to write her name as well! Here's to creativity!

A painted card

Here's a card I made for my AAM (All about me) friend, Ehrin. It was fun painting on a card for a change rather than doing the usual scrappy thing. It was inspired by Basic Grey paper from the BLUSH collection. Fun, cool, happy. love it!

Deck the halls with bells of holly...

Can't believe it's time to put up the Christmas tree. We all had fun getting the lights working, looking at the decorations and wondering if the leftover angel chocolates i bought in Germany last year, would still be ok to eat! We found them in the box of decorations packed away from last year!

It seems that the field mice in the veld next door to us decided that the Christmas tree and its box were a nice nesting place. We now have some nibbled Christmas tree branches looking very bare!

We put on some Christmas CD's and before you knew it the tree was up and the lights were working and we were in the Christmas mood. Roll on December 25th!
