Today’s WOYWW is a special one for me cos I have cleared my desk specifically to show you what I did on Sunday. You see, I went all the way to a little place called Tidworth in order to take part in a Christmas Card Marathon as hosted by the Two Scrap Ladies (and two nicer ladies you couldn’t wish to meet!)
These photographs manage to show all the cards that I made. Unfortunately I did not get round to making all 24 as I just ran out of time!
But I did learn a few new things, met some great people, got stuffed with good food – including some utterly delicious bite-sized brownies with buttercream icing and pieces of chocolate on top – utterly yummy!
I don’t think that I could pick out a favourite amongst these great cards, but I do like the wooden reindeer one, the two-candles one, the tree one in the bottom right hand corner and the very simple mistletoe on vellum. (Heck I might as well name them all as favourites!!)
In any case, I want to say a huge thank you to Julia and Ally for organising such a great day! (by the way there is a picture of the event on the Two Scrap Ladies blog – you can just about make me out in the purple rollneck at the top of the table on the other side of the table just by the window – did that make any sense – ha ha!!)

OMG! I've got a bunch of cards that look just like that!! Shame the rest of my desk isn't so tidy!
So glad you enjoyed the day - not as much as me tho, and I'm going to add the brownies to my 'must bring to crop and other craft day' list!!
Wanted to pop back and tell you about JYC - Journal YOur Christmas, an online class invovling daily email propts by Shimelle. The world and her sister seem to be doing it. Which makes me the baby sister who isn't!

(JYC) each day for the next 36 you create a Lo about something christmassy. every morning Shimmelle emails a prompt and you can either use the prompt or go your own way. Its a really nice book to look back at.
