Morning readers,
Good weekend? Hope you all survived the storm named Dennis! It was wet and wild here with us but ... I simply turned on the lights and hit the ToC (that's Table of Craftiness)!! I missed my daily walk on Saturday as the winds were simply too strong to risk my tree lined walk! Sunday dawned much calmer so I dressed up and headed out ...... got about half way through my walk (i.e. furthest point from home) and down came the rain!! I dripped my way home!! Still, I'm glad I went despite the fact it was really "rather bracing"!
I've a make to share with you today .... yep, it's a Christmas card too ... I have positioned my little penguin so it looks like he's tap dancing on the "R's" (oo-er missus) not deliberate but - central!!!

That's a cute and CAS Christmas card.
Sorry to hear the weather turned on you at the furthest point from home! That's bad luck. Still, you can feel smug that you went for a walk at all over the weekend, given the stormy weather.
Like you, I spent a fair portion of the weekend at the craft table.
Happy Monday. Weather much better NOW, although I travelled to work in a hail storm . . . may have dented car bodywork from it! LOL!

This is so sweet, what an adorable card, Love the Penguin dancing on the Rrrs!!! It wasn't too rainy here yesterday but the wind was awful, couldn't sleep last night for it. Thank You for playing along with me this fortnight over on Fezziwigs Festive Frolics, Hazel xx
Another cute little Christmas card, Kathy.
We got soaked on Saturday walking to the football ground from the car - at least we were dry during the game. Popped out this morning and got caught in a hail storm! Roll on spring! xx
Such a cute little penguin image Kathy and love the way you have set him on top of the sentiment, and congratulations on being a favourite over at HLS with your great motorbike ATC. The weather has been completely mixed here too, and we even had some thunder and lightening over the weekend. I don't know that we have ever had thunder and lightening in February before, and if so not that I can remember in recent times. Hopefully it will cheer up a bit soon. x
Such a cute little fella and love how he's dancing on the sentiment! So glad you joined us for our "Feature a Sentiment" Challenge at Christmas at Sweet Stampin'!
Very cute! Thanks for playing along with the KRafty Chicks challenge. Hope to see you again!
