Let's Go La La ....

Hey there folks ....

Wow where has this last year gone?  I remember my Mum & Dad always telling me to stop wishing my life away when I was kid ... You know what I mean ... "I can't wait til Christmas, I'm 18, I'm 21" etc etc .... Now I find myself saying I remember those days of being 18, 21 etc etc lol.  I'm always blown away by how fast time goes the older you get and find myself saying "How did it get here so quick?"

24 days til Christmas Day is upon us and 25 until it's over with until next year ...  I don't know which I'm looking more forward to lol.

I finally got around to doing some more colouring and card making and this is for the La La Land Crafts Black and White Challenge ... It's the first black and white image I've coloured with copics and I must say I struggled to not put some pink or red in with it :D  Overall I'm pretty happy with how it looks and I'll try and find some more challenges to put her in.

I now really need to get my stuff together and get some Christmas cards made and sent out.  I only send a handful of coloured cards and the rest are just clean and simple with no colouring at all .... I'm giving myself two weeks and that's it!!  Otherwise I might have to resort to bought (OMG!) cards lol.

Well, I hope everyone's Christmas spirit is with them and the build up to the big day is not too stressful for you all ....

Until next time .... Ciao
Julie
