Where has the time gone?

Didn't realise it was the beginning of May when I last blogged!Can't believe we're nearly into July.Someone mentioned christmas cards last week, ah my friend Liz when we took a ride out to Capture The Magic. I always have good intentions of starting to make christmas cards from July, but each year I get to November and think I'd best get a move on LOL. I'm really going to try this year, I say with fingers and toes crossed.
I've been doing alot of rubber stamping the past couple of months and watercolouring them with my lovely Caran D' Ache pencils(blame my mate Carol for getting me onto them) they produce such lovely results and you don't have to be a fab artist either. These images I'm getting done so I can have a couple of days making a batch of general cards.........I've got all the stuff just got to find some me time to do them. Me time has been harder the last few months what with working two part time jobs and having to catch up on sleep as one of them involves working wake nights and sometimes only having an hour spare before going onto my other part time job. Sympathy votes here please LOL
Took a trip out to Papermaze earlier................bad mistake as I bought one of the new EK Success border punches, very similar to the Martha Stewart punches(that's a laugh as they're made by EK too) but a smaller design, so great for mini books cardmaking etc.
The weather today is gloriously hot, lets hope it continues, odd cos Wimbledon is on too.
Treated us to a new computer desk from Staples yesterday, so have had a good sort out and Andy didn't moan about the desk, so it must be OK. The Scouts have taken the old one as they've got their bi-annual auction on Saturday to raise funds to keep their mini bus on the road.
I must stop now as I've just been asked' are you doing any tea?'
Enjoy the weather..................................
