Well it's Friday, and I soooooooo love Friday evenings!! It's a lovely feeling knowing I have two whole days off ( even though I am o/c tomorrow for advice only!! ), and I do look forward to a little lay in!!. My little lay in normally till 6.30am and then my internal alarm clock wakes me up, and when I am awake that's it!!, up I get to a very peaceful house and then do a bit of sneaky crafting until everyone gets up :o)

Right, on tonights little creation, this little star is again one of my new stamps from Crafters Companion S.W.A.L.K Range and again I think it's a little gem and I am very pleased how this one turned out :o)

SUNDAY SKETCH AND STAMP # 32 ~ SKETCH

Evening all!!

Tonight's little creation is made with one of my fab new stamps from Lili of the Valley called "Mary and Joseph", such a gorgeous little stamp with the sweetest little characters. Don't know about you but I am not a lover of making Christmas cards, actually that's an understatement lol!!Every year I try and try making them and I end up throwing them in the bin because I just don't like them. We all end up with hundreds of Xmas cards, a quick look then put them to one side ready to go in the bin Boxing day!!
Anyway, this year I will force myself to make a few each month and hopefully I will end up enjoying them by the end of the year especially if the images are as cute as this one :o)

So tonight's little gem is going into the fab sketch over at Sunday sketch and stamp #32
