Merry Christmas All

Hi all

I know i know its been quite some time since i last blogged

I have had a few health issues and other things come up but have been feeling much better over last week or so,

you know what its like if it ain't one thing its another lol

I`m so glad to be back and be able to share some pics of some projects that i have managed to get done in between things.

The first is the advent boxes i made from matchboxes one for each of my daughters thought it would be great something they can get out each year.

The pink one is Charlie`s - blue Toni`s - red n green Bobbie`s

and i also made some decorations using the SU punches and some chocolate coins

they finish the tree of perfectly too :)

Hope you like

thanks for taking the time to look
