A TATTY CHRISTMAS TO YOU.....!

Morning all........

Well I had a lovely day crafting....then I had an awful afternoon sorting out my blog.....!

I had an upgrade on my flash player....which didn't install properly...and that's when all my problems started...and no one could view my blog....! Oops spent all afternoon pulling my hair out in between having a paddy....but thankfully I think I have sorted it all out....

Anyway....enough waffle.....and onto my wee creation and I have made another note book.. Ooh I do like making these at the mo.....and that's all down to my good friend Pops....and this time it's a Crimbo one..!

I have used a cute Tatty Button stamp which I bought from Ally Pally, some Nitwits, lace my fave snowflakes and a punched Poinsettia flower.....

and here it is......
