Merry Christmas 2011
















Hi,
So 2011 is almost at a close with 10 days till Christmas and 15 days till the end of the year. OMG.
i would love to share with you my Xmas cards for this year. there never fancy cause you have to make so many but love the Result. i have used some old DSP from a few Christmas ago so i can make room for some new paper and still haven't decided on the new stamps i want to get from the new catalouge (shame on me)

The best word i Can use to Sum up 2011 is Hectic. The Year started off in Feb with another Operation to my Knee. (an my last thank goodness). A trip the the Statesin April for 4 weeks to Celebrate our 2nd wedding anniversary, ( we were meant to go for our First but i had my Knee Reconstruction so we had to re scheduled). then We had Our 30th B'days in July and September and Got stuck into Finishing renovations in our yard in Oct ( still ongoing).
Lots of our Friends become parents for the first time this year and a few had baby #2. and lots of reasons to celebrate Between Birthdays and baby's and Weddings and Engagements.

To all who have had the time to check out my Blog i wish you and your family's a Very merry Christmas and a safe and happy 2012.
Hope to see you all in 2012 (Blog style)

Merry Christmas
