Last Christmas card

I made this card for a sketch challenge a while ago but forgot to show you. I put up the photos on a post, saved it and wanted to write a little bit about it later, before I posted it. I forgot I have made the blog post it automatically today on the 26:th, lol. I'm glad you liked it and I thank you for all the kind words.

I've had a calm, slightly boring Christmas. I'm hoping New year's will be better. I will be spending New Year at home so that will be an improvement. I just like my home so much and I miss my crafttable. After these months of making so many cards I'm feeling abstinent :)

I've brought a couple of things to try out for the whimsy stamps DT call, but I don't think I will make it on time :( I miss my workspace and don't have much inspiration or energy. Maybe later today...the deadline is tomorrow, so we'll see.

One thing I'm very excited about are all the sales! My two closest stores are having sales and since I didn't get anything crafty for Christmas I'm going to splurge.

By the way, all of you who have shown interest in the hÄnglar I have for sale: I thought I'd photograph the ones I have and will put it up in an album and link from here. I'll try to do this the week after new year's. I think I have about 5 stamps for sale. I thought I'd also ask if there is any interest in Magolias (fairly priced for about 70sek)?

Merry Christmas to all

Today, on the 24:th we're celebrating Christmas here in Sweden. At 3 o'clock most of us watch a Disney Christmas celebration program that is 1 hour long. It's parts of Disney movies put into a show that is presented by the cricket from Pinochio.

I have also opened my first gift. Me and my fiancée exchange one gift in the mornings. I got a USB cup warmer! It's so great because my tea always gets cold while I sit in front of the computer. Now it will stay at 50-60 degrees all the time :)

I'm hoping you are having a lovely Christmas or doing the really last last preparations for tomorrow. Here's a tag I made for a friend that I sent together with a small pile of gifts. I'm so fond of the Basic Grey paper. I put some gold glitter on the text and dimension thingy on her boots and the bell. I'm really glad I got this stamp as my first Magnolia.
