Christmas cards

We had a busy weekend - Mum brought her trailer over and we spent the weekend tidying up the gardens and pruning back all the trees / shrubs. Our mandarin tree has another bumper crop again this year - so we picked some for our neighbours.


The girls (Kylie, Cathie, Elena and Amanda) came over to do some card-making on Saturday night. We are having a Christmas card swap for the Xmas in July celebrations at Simply Crafty, so decided to be super organised and make our cards now. As usual there was more chatting then cardmaking happening, but we all managed to get our 3 cards finished :) These are the cards I made.





Here they are all packaged up and ready to go :) I'm even that organised that I have brought my 'secret Santa' present - how crazy?!? LOL Now I just need to get started on the kraft card swap and countryside theme embellishment swap for this month at Simply Craft LOL


I had to share this pic of our cute puppies :) I left some chairs on the back lawn and they claimed them for some sun baking today - spoilt! LOL
