Still not much time for crafting, although i finally finished this card last night which i have to post today. I am very much loving these Bella stamps at the moment and received some more from one of my lovely friends for christmas, i can't wait to ink them up.
Has anyone made a new years resolution this year? I have promised myself to curb my spending on my crafting, now ladies, how long do you think thats going to last? i really am trying hard to use as many of the papers i already have before buying more, and to ink up all those stamps still in their packets before buying anymore. As i mentioned in an earlier post, i am going to try and organize a big swap, so for those of us wanting particular images but can't for whatever reason afford to buy the stamps just now can maybe get hold of them by offering something in return, be it stamped images, papers or whatever springs to mind. If you are interested please let me know, i have already started a list of ladies i know who would like to take part. I am planning on running it at the middle of January. More details on this to follow later.
Well i am going to do some blog hopping before doing some of the dread housework. Which unfortunately can not wait any longer! We will be taking down the tree and decorations tomorrow, so then we can get back to normal, i can honestly say, im not sure all that effort was worth it this year. Do i sound a real grouch?!?! - sorry. Hugs for now Linda x

Hi Linda, your card is beautiful hun. Like you, I'm still chasing my tail. I'm heading out now craft shopping with a friend so I will e mail you tonight, I've missed our little e mail chats and can't wait till things get back to normal here.

Happy New Year Linda! sounds like we've made the same resolutions! Love your cute card in pastel pink and blue, we need some spring colours now! And of course I'd be happy to join your image swap - although I do have more than enough stamps to keep me occupied for years to come! hugs, annie x
Great card, fab image.
Hi Linda, Love the card I really like these images too. I know how you feel about loosing everything on you computer. It happened to me last year and I lost everything including photos of the kids. I think your image swap is a great idea and would love to get involved with it.
