Christmas Cards day 3

Christmas Cards day 2

It's day 2 of the christmas cards and another simple but hopefully stylish creation. I have tried to make these easy to reproduce so I can make several of the same design. Still have a load to make but at least I have started lol. Spent last night wrapping a few presents and it made me feel all christmassy, wanted to listen to christmas songs and drink hot chocolate oh and of course break out the Quality Street. Image coloured with trusty copics and a bit of glossy accents, what I ever did before I bought this I don't know.

Christmas Cards

Well I have finally started on my christmas cards, made a grand total of 12 this weekend and they all pretty much follow the same format and will post them over the next few days. I decided to go with a clean and simple approach as I have so many to make and it is also a busy birthday month, mojo seems to behaving although not enough to take part in any challenges lol.

Very Green Card

My friend at work adores green and it really suits her so when it came to her birthday card there was really only one colour that would do. As soon as I saw this image from Tiddlyinks I knew it was going to be perfect. She makes the most amazing cakes really outstanding and I even gave up my diet for a day recently when she brought in her homemade brownies. I hope she likes it. If you get a chance popon over to Tiddlyinks where there is a 36 hour sale,I adore her images and my first ever blog post was one of her designs.

A New ME

As Mr. Mojo seems to have gone on a sudden and unexpected break I thought I would let you all know what I have been upto instead. I have been on my first diet for about twenty years and this is time I have stuck with it even when it got tough. I haven't blogged as I have been loosing weight as although the scales told me I was getting smaller my eyes didn't lol. In fact after loosing 37 pounds ( 2 stone 9 pounds) I can finally see a difference, this doesn't mean the journey is over in fact I still have a long way to go but I am feeling more positive that I will make it now. It feels wonderful to fit into sizes I thought were a dim and distant memory and the positive comments from my co-workers has helped considerably. I don't know about anyone else but I kept on wearing my original clothes that were too big and I decided to see what size I was after someone said I was wearing clown trousers that just needed the braces lol. It did feel weird visiting a store and having to pick up a range of sizes just to see which one fitted especially when the "would love to fit" was the right one.
