Makeover and a Revamp
January is almost half way there and so is my Etsy Shop makeover slowly but surely getting through my products and updating and giving the products a new look. Tonight the altered notebooks got their makeover and I am really pleased with the new photos.
There is a large pile of cards still to be listed but here are a couple of cards I got done this evening...
So what's the verdict so far? like or don't like? Hopefully will get another bit done over the next few days....

Recycling Christmas and Moving On...
This evening I took the large pile of Christmas cards that our household had accumulated and recycled as many parts of the cards as I could and now have a large bag of tags all ready for Christmas 2012, so long I don't forget they are there for next Christmas...
The large circle paper punch I bought was a great investment never have to buy tags at all just recycle all used cards for new tags. Now all that is needed now is some ribbon....
I also made a start on making some Valentines Flower Bouquets I did them with flock paper and I really have to say I love the three cards I did tonight!
After sorting out some college work I then sat down and watched 'How Does She Do it' with Sarah Jessica Parker as a Boston Woman who juggles her 'Mammy' life with the chaos of work and everything else.... Have to say it I enjoyed it! :)
And here are the cards I made tonight already listed on My Etsy Shop.

Maybe Not so Dreary a Monday Afterall...
Greetings on this damp and dreary Monday morning, here in Dublin at the moment its a day to be spent indoors perhaps checking out some great websites and blogs here is my lastest blog found and I must admit it was a bit of love at first sight...
With its delish colour mood boards and beautiful photography and interesting and will appeal to everyone posts!
The next thing is I have discovered, well I believe my fascination with Owls of late is slightly still moving on (still loving owls but...) I think (that me personally believe) that Foxes are the next big thing cute red foxes with their white tipped tails now if only I could find one in the surrounding field at home in Co. Meath that will stay still long enough fro me to snap him or her on my camera, one that is alive due to the fact the last fox I saw wasn't poor wee guy or gal was after been killed on the road. I want to draw some foxes!
So with foxes in mind here are some wee foxes I like..... courtsey of Etsy.com
