I am altering the wooden blocks from My Mind's Eye as a present to my hubby.... something which he can display on this office table & perhaps play with the puzzle when work is stressful :)

I have finished 10 star album and trying to make five more during the weekend. Thought that I will make some of your magic album after this saturday class but now cannot liao because I don't think I can attend the 6.30 class. Hopefully there are some last minute changes then I will call MWL to ask if there is any vacancy then.

Doen with the cards and tags. I'm now making calendars for my friends using the maya road layer books. Also bought a K Co calendar kit, making it for my hubby. But to keep it as a surprise until Christmas, I can only work on it when he's asleep :doh:

I made cards back in November but gave up after making 50 and bought the rest! I also did 3 x 20 page albums for my parents and in-laws - sounds a lot, but they were all identical and digital, so I just had to hit the print button three times.
My dh would certainly NOT be impressed if I gave him something I'd made - if it doesn't require electricity in some form, he's not interested. Haven't made anything to decorate the house as once again dh wouldn't want.
And now can't do anything except digi as I stupidly broke my wrist 3 days ago, so no paper scrapping for quite a while. Silly me.

Book thongs are fun and quick to make. I did lots 2 years ago. Last year handmade cards. This year, sigh ... no time or energy. Only closest and dearest will get something handmade.

just clearing my stuff and i came across a card an old fren did himself for me, so simple, just pen line sketches and it's a card i will still keep and treasure, so like what he said, it's the thought that counts...so..happy crafting, sharing and spreading the love this Christmas!

Hmmm... AHHHHHHHHHHHHh I FORGOT TO TAKE PICTURES OF THE STUFF!!! But ok, i've got quite a number of altered notebooks (very pretty indeed), and quite a few sets of handmade paper clips (very easy to make indeed)! For two others, there's also an altered CD case coz' I'm giving them a compilation of sermons by this really good preacher. And... I'm also giving a baby brag book to a really sweet mother-to-be as well! Her baby's due in Jan, and her tummy's so big and round we're all like *wow* I don't know how all you mothers do it!
