Ok an adorable gorgeous 7 yr old boy woke me up at 5am on thursday morning and asked to have a conversation it went like this.....
connor 'mummy ( means he wants something cause he now calls me mum ) do you possibly think you could knock me up a few christmas cards for school'
me 'connor ots 5am '
connor ' I know but it was playing on my mind'
me 'ok connor il do it justlet me sleep man im tired and how many is a few?'
connor '86 48 for the boys and 38 for the girls please and can you make them differentand can you please have them ready for tommorow as we can only postthem in the post box on a friday'
me 'arrrrrggggggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh'
lol so yep I got up and made 86 christmas cards one style for the boys and one for the girls, they were easy i keptthem simple a snowman stamp fpr the boys and fairy for the girls backed on double sided adeshive paper, glitterd then matted and layered on card adn mirroe card, bit of ribbon sentiment inside hey presto....
sorry bout the flash in the picture jason took them while I was at work as connor wanted to post them!
What else has been occupying my crafty hands ...... countdown calendars 1 each for connor and ashaara as nevaehis to young this year.
I loved doing these, were so quick and easy and yet are still really effective.
I used the papermania naughty or nice range for Ashaara and doodlebug red and green flocked papers for connor, add some snowflakes bit of ribbon and bling and up on the shelf they go
Ive also been craking on with my next assignment for the scrapbook apprentice but i cant share that here sorry!!!!
Also the journal your christmas class, ive still got to do yeatersday prompt and todays as I was working yesterday but im going to get craking today.
My gorgeous fella is working a 15hour shift andhas been out since 6am and the kids are all set up with craftiness to keep them busy so off I go before dad comes and takes me away to start papering boo hoo!
