Baby Sitting (again) by Vicki Avcin

Well weve had this little girl before for a few months and we are about to get her again. Georgia will be with us probably for the next 6 months until we know whats happening with laws for rental properties. Georgia belongs to granddaughter Zoe and was with Zoes mother until last week when Zoe was told to come and get the cat. Zoe now lives with her Dad and step mum but they too have sold their house and are currently renting and cannot have pets. There is a move trying to get laws changed here so that tenants can have pets, where at the moment there is not many properties that will allow pets. It is in the process of trying to bring about change but doesnt look like it will happen until about July, so until we know for sure if her Dad can have the cat then, we are going to babysit. It was either that or she be given to a no kill rescue organisation and she was fostered out but I couldnt let that happen.Shes very much an indoor cat and so clean that its not a problem saying well have her. Only thing she likes doing is getting up on top of cupboards to sleep, which she invariably knocks anything on top of the cupboards off. Thats always fun when we have to get her down! But she really is the sweetest little girl and Im looking forward to having her with us again.

This week Im promoting just two of my cards designed for Dads, brothers, sons (male). Both quick easy cards to make for Birthdays, Fathers Day etc.

The Conservatory at The Bellagio – Majestic Holiday Magic by Sandie Burchell

On Christmas Day we went for Christmas Dinner at The Belagio in Las Vegas. Of course, we couldnt leave without seeing the latest seasonal exhibit at The Conservatory. This year it is titled Majestic Holiday Magic, and features the return of Queen Bellisima. There is a family of Polar Bears playing in the water all made from white flowers on the left as you walk in and a Horse drawn Carriage.In another area was the Queens Castle, which towered at a height of 30 and was guarded by her majestic rotating soldiers. My photograph shows the Christmas tree, which was a sight to behold, standing 42 in height and 18 in diameter, and was adorned with many beautiful ornaments. I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and I would like to take this opportunity to wish you all a Happy New Year! xx

I am promoting my latest Centre Fancy Pyramage Mini Kits. My 20% Discount on my whole store started today and will run until Midnight UK time on 31st December 2018. A perfect time to empty your wishlists!

... Little Christmas Elves helped decorate the Christmas Tree!! Sadly I didnt get a good photo of our two youngest grandchildren decorating the tree, but you have to agree they did a fabulous job of it!! We were lucky enough to go and see Olivia in her Christmas Play, she was a lovely sweet Angel. We were asked not to share any photos of this so youll have to take my word for it that she looked beautiful! I hope you all had a Fabby Christmas I send you wishes for a Happy New Year! Below are 2 of my Cute Gift Boxes ... Watch out for more coming soon!

Merry Christmas! by Lauren C. Waterworth

Its the most wonderful, busiest, exhausting time of the year! But we made it through and Baby W thoroughly enjoyed his second ever Christmas. It has become clear to us that unless it has wheels Baby W is not interested... as shown with his obsession with this Vava that our friend bought for him, which put our gifts thoroughly in the shade. He is one lucky boy who has been thoroughly spoilt by all our family and friends. We will for ever be eternally grateful for all the love and support that we have around us.The only thing is that its his birthday in January so we are going to have to do it all again!Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to everyone who has supported me over the last twelve months. I cant wait to get 2019 started!
