Where has the year gone???

Oh my - look at this - it is nearly the end of the year, and I'm STILL not up to date with everything!

Finally posted out my Christmas cards this morning - well maybe they are more "Happy New Years" cards now .... and of course, being the most organised person on the planet (NOT!)... well I forgot to take a photo of them to share . Yes slap me around now..... I made just over 100 of them, and I have to say - I HATE production line stuff. The card was really nice, but you know how it is, by the end of it, you are certainly "over it". It was inspired by some gorgeous cards that I've received in the mail this month, namely by Tina and Fleur mostly. Of course all the cards are gorgeous, it's just that I have taken elements from cards from these 2 and combined them - I love being inspired by others work, and the sharing attitude that so many of us have to this business. Oh well I'm sure there will be someone that I've missed, so I'll have to make some more....

But..... the cutting of the pieces was made soooo much easier (and quicker) by my new gadget that arrived last week - yes I am THE Gadget Queen.....
I finally got my DreamKuts!!! I've been umming and ahhing over getting one of these for a few months for some time - but finally found it at a price that I just couldn't refuse (yes I was in the middle of one of my infamous spending sprees too ). BUT oh boy! This baby is wonderful! I can see it being worth its weight in gold to me, not that it's heavy though - its so much fun, quick, simple to use, not to mention accurate! LOVE it......

Another update shortly, just waiting for the camera batteries to charge so I can post some pics of what we've been up to!
