Feeding the Reindeer and more

I spent the afternoon with my Monday afternoon with my Mam and what a treat we had, we went to the local garden center and they had the reindeer there and you were allowed to feed them, I couldn’t believe just how friendly they were.

 

I’ve added a short clip of them.

Feeding the Reindeer

Before we went out I took a hot beef sandwich from our local deli, my Mams cat could smell me coming I think and can you believe it gives you a paw when it wants what is on your plate? here it is here begging Mam for some beef.

Timmy’s Stocking–Made by my Daughter Natalie

You could have knocked me over with a feather when my DD Natalie asked if she could colour one of Mo’s images and make a card. Natalie has always been my judge when I push a card in front of her nose to check her reaction to it, I can tell instantly by her expression weather or not she approves but this is the very first time she has shown an interest in actually making a card herself, I have to say that I am very very impressed.

Timmy’s Stocking by Mo’s Digital Pencil 

Coloured with Copic markers and teamed with Craft Creations papers.

hi all, Natalie here, as my Mam mentioned earlier this is the first card I have made and I have to tell the truth I didn't realise how much work went into creating them (you crafters make it look so easy!). When I asked my mam if I could colour one of Mo's images I expected it to take ten minutes but boy was I wrong …after a lot of effort (and coaching from Mam) I had finally finished the colouring and was ready to make it into a card. I must admit the card didn't take long to put together once the image was complete and above is the final result.

As this is my first card I would love to hear your comments and criticisms and we have decided that on Christmas Eve we will pick a lucky winner from the comments for a spot prize.

“Come they told me par rop pom pom pom”

You sing it and I'll strum it.

Shall I Play For You and Snow Day by Mo’s Digital Pencil merged to make one image, I put the two together after seeing the children dancing in our town to the Christmas Music. It always makes me smile to see the little ones getting excited for Christmas.

 

Image coloured with Copic markers and teamed with basic grey designer papers and a pretty bow made from Ribbon Carousel Christmas ribbon.

of course little Drummer boy just wouldn’t be complete without bing crasby and david Bowie singing along.

The one that nearly got away.

I bet most of you have done this, there I was cleaning out the cupboard that everyone chucks things in but no-one likes to find anything in, i was being ruthless, throwing out everything that my hands touched and I was just about to put a stiff backed envelope into the bin when I decided to look inside it, no writing clues on it at all and it didn’t particularly feel as if there would be anything inside it so why I looked I’ll never know but I’m pleased I did.

inside the envelope was a photograph of our two daughters from when they were young not a small postcard one but a 8” x 10” one.

So onto todays share a new digital scrapbook page.

Thank heavens for my nosiness
