Have you any Christmas LOs to share? I always seem to do mine a year later, when it starts to feels Christmassy again! Here's one of my great-nephew Joseph at our family Christmas party in 2017 which I did for this week's Friday 5 challenge. The lights were done with a pen in my Cricut.
And one more.. a home made Christmas jumper and one my friend made too for a competition. Wasn’t she clever? (Close up of the embroidery in the bottom photo).. the ugly jumper refers to my rubbish attempt! Lol
I was still working as an estate agent at the time and the For Sale board was one of ours scanned in and printed then sewn. Needless to say a really tacky, no skills, jumper won full of tinsel and baubles..obviously the judges had no taste! Lol
I think I should go back and journal on this one!
No layouts from me im afradi, and not seeming to have the time to scrap at the moment, but heres another Christmas idea....
We arent going to be here at Christmas so the tree is up elsewhere and it was looking a bit bare here and I was missing not having christmas lights (the best bit i think). We brought this branch in from the garden, suspended it from the balcony and decorated it with some of my favourite items... The lights look great and the branch is making a lovely pine smell, well better than the tree really because its fresher i suppose. Anyway, im pleased with the effect
Lovely ideas being shared here
Here's a little something that my youngest daughter shared with me yesterday. She's Disney mad, so she decided to make herself a Disney Christmas wreath
I have only just discovered this thread and I'm so pleased I did! PinkSparklyScrapper - love your Pinterest idea, I'm having a new front door fitted in the new year and a traditional wreath just won't look right, I'll put this as a task to do for next Christmas
Maria, thank you for sharing your story, I'm so glad the Christmas Spirit has found you again xx

I joined in with BTcR last year and managed to complete all cards by around April or May I think, to be fair I only make cards for close family and friends now so I didn't have many to do. Anyway, it's been great this year not having to stress about making any at the last minute so I'll definitely be joinging in for the first part of the year at least

Fab idea! I'm sure I have a couple of packs of acrylic snowflakes that I bought years ago intending to do 'something' with them - looks like this year it might finally happen!
Love the Disney Christmas wreath Chris, I have a friend who is Disney mad so I'll be sure to show her.
