Good Morning!
Today's challenge at PAPERTAKE WEEKLY is plain and simply Anything Goes! You also have the option of creating a Christmas Gift! I decided to opt out of this however due to yesterday's post and another on Saturday's :)
Before I share with you the card I thought I'd let you know what I'd got up to yesterday ... well after having my morning cup of tea ...
(You may wonder why I aren't at work this week, this is due to me being laid off. However I might be brought back after the New Year but I won't know until then. There are no other jobs going around where I live but tbf I'm enjoying the break atm as it means I can get on with the Christmas prep and some crafting!)
Back to yesterday I decided to start on the home-made Christmas Cake that I have never made before!
Next step is to wrap it in foil and to keep adding brandy for the next couple of weeks before decorating ... hopefully this will be straight forward enough! Today's mission is Mince Pies for the first time and I shall let you all know how I get on with them tomorrow!
Back to today's card ...
