I don't recognize my work space this morning, gleaming it is!  
That is because I have deep cleaned everywhere ready for our Christmas visitors arriving today!
Keeping this very short this morning as I still have some last minutes tweaks to do!
Pop on over to Julia's blog for links if you want to see some more work spaces today or would like to join in!
 even my cutting station is clear!
 before I dash, must show you some pics I took on Saturday morning of our lunar eclipse!



 Thank you so much for dropping by, have a fabulous day!

Cute Card Thursday ~ Anything goes!

Cute Card Thursday this week is anything goes!
I thought it was the perfect opportunity to use this cute Milk Carton die I got from Stampin' Up and turn it into a Christmas bird house tree ornament! Huge thanks to Kathy Thorn for another great idea!
We are sponsored this week by Simon Says Stamp!

This cutie is an Elzybels stamp from a long time ago, I think I am right in saying they closed down so not sure if they are still available to buy! She was the perfect size for this tiny project!
The papers I used are My Minds Eye 'Signature Christmas'
******
A very busy time of year, I hope you find time to join us this week!  Pop over to see the rest of the Design Team's fabulous creations!  
Thanks so much for dropping in, have a fabulous, creative day!

It is that time again, I am very late this week though because I have been at my Stampin' Up Class this morning. You can see the fabulous tree we made below!
First though, I should show the mess that is my desk. I am not getting anything put away as my December daily needs to be constantly worked on.
 Here you can see my opening page, I know, didn't get very far did I? Hopefully I will be on track by next week!
 and here is the amazing tree we made in class!  I love it.  Thank you Kathy for another fantastic class! The box below it opens up to put a gift inside! 
I will fill it with some nice chocolates and the little guys can give it to the school bus driver when school ends next week!
Then I need to make another one to keep!
If  you want to play along or just want to see some more desks pop on over to Julia's blog for links!
