What a time!


Well things have been manic here. I have had to have my computer reformatted as it got a virus. Still working on putting all my stuff back so there has been no time for playing. Oh my, all those things I dreamt of doing now I had a little time and I end up having to do that! I did manage to make a card before it happened though... my daughter told me she had a black Christmas tree this year... yes black! I made a card to go with it. The bits were cut on my robo from files provided by the lovely ladies on UKS... thanks to them! There are some pretty weird trees out there this year... even seen an upside down one! Why? Call me old fashioned but I can't see anything wrong with a good old traditional one myself! ;)

I have some more bits cut and ready to use so hopefully I shall get those finished today... I really need to post my cards on time this year!

A robo day!







Today has been a lot of fun and after the manic last few weeks I have really enjoyed it! The fayres went extremely well, in fact I had to scrabble to make more things for the last one, which was in Portishead. All over for this year for me, thank goodness so I have been able to relax a little this week. My son and his partner came down at the weekend to see the boxing at my daughter's... mega disappointed with the result though! It was a shame I had a fayre at the same time because it limited the time I could spend with them but there we go... can't help it now!
Yesterday I started playing with my robo (about time to!) I have bought some files to use and I am quite excited about making them all up. Today I made a Wedding cake and box from a file I got from UKScrappers JennieBean for which I thank her very much! :D It is fabulous and I have included some piccies of it. Tomorrow I want to make the other things up and I am really excited! I do hope that I shall soon be able to make some of my own files up... the girls on UKS have been so generous with their work I would like to reciprocate... well one of these days! I confess to having unpacked robo and not read the manual but blundered on so far... really should do it properly! Bliss! It is really good to get some time to myself! (especially with all the stuff I still have to do for Christmas... bit close now isn't it :?) Ah well back to dreaming of what I shall make tomorrow!
