Life seems to be slowly getting back to normal (well whatever normal is with a 4 year old boy !!) - everybody seemed to enjoy the party and their party bags ( i don't do plastic toot and rubbish, so i gave each child a 'Snail and The Whale' activity books - another book by The Gruffalo author), son also got some very nice presents. All his friends seem to be into pirates, so i will have to scout round for a suitable image, as i have some Karen Foster papers already !!!
Sorry my first Christmas Card for 2011. I bought todays image just before Xmas, when The Glitter Pot had it for half price - i originally wanted the stamp with the bear pulling a tree, but when son saw this he decided mummy should buy it and to stop him from creating i bought it and now i'm really pleased i did. The punch is also new, but the papers and ribbon i've had for ages, as the papers look vintage, i also decided to distress them.
Right onto todays Card and Challenges :
