Christmas card photo

Every year I send out Christmas cards with a photo of my 4 cherubs along with a blurb update of our family. This year being injured and time poor, I had the kids and hubby write their names on my iPad using Adobe Ideas and edit them together to put at the end of the family update.

This is the 2013 photo, J is 10, N is 9, D is 8 and B is 6.5


The "signatures" for each card (this was a time saver in the end also as I pasted all the family update into each card instead of writing Merry Christmas etc.


Also, using Adobe Ideas, the kids each drew a picture. Originally, they were going to hand it out at school with candy canes to their classmates but opted to just give out candy canes in the end.


I hope you all have a wonderful New Year's Eve this evening. We are celebrating with family at our place as hubby is working. See you all in 2014.

It's all so quiet...

It's been very quiet around here on my old blog of late. Thankfully, my wrist has almost completely healed (it was tendonitis). Seeing as it's been so quiet, I'm fixing that with some craftiness happening at my desk tonight. I also have some classes beginning this week on Friday (3rd January). 

This month I have made very little but one thing I did make was ornaments for my nephews childcare carers. They are hanging ornaments inspired by this found on Pinterest. If only I hadn't finished them at 11pm the day before he was handing them out I could have taken better photos. Photo taken by Personalised Art.

Quiet

It's been a little quiet around here of late. I am currently all taped up and resting a potential wrist tendon injury. It certainly makes it hard to craft, take photos, type etc. I am wrapping up my final classes for the year with some help from my crew and look forward to sharing more crafting soon.
