  8. Morning Julia, My hat goes off to you, I don't know how you manage to fit it all in, I think your 24 hours must be on 'elastic' ha ha. I hope you manage to fit in some 'relaxation' time.

  15. Morning Julia and Wattsonettes. Lovely card Julia. I dont know how you do it ! I look at my stash, blank card, and wonder where to start, not that I have that much, but lack of creativity and artisitic brain cells ! We all understand how much pressure you must be under, so keeping up with your blog when you have so much prep to do just isnt that important ( your health is) so take care and look forward to watching your shows.
    Have a good day everyone.

  16. Hi Julia

    Love this Christmas card. Especially how you've done the trees on the embossing folders. It's fine just having the list of dies and stamps you have used as your so busy prepping. not to sure how you fit 24hrs into your day. Don't work to hard.
