Hi peeps!
This is my terrible mess! You have been
warned! So you can still turn round and walk away.....
Alright, if you insist, here we go:
I have no project on the go at the
moment. I’ve finished my embroidery (cross stitch on my linen hand towel), but that’s not what you want to see I
guess.
Last week we spent the week in Valencia. We felt we
needed a little holiday. (Have a look at the photos at my previous blog). The city map is still on my desk and I think I might use it for scrapbooking at some stage.
My first Christmas card has arrived and takes proud place
on my desk (top left). Further to the right past the punches is a postcard with an image
of a medieval lady. It was sent to me from Russia through Postcrossing.com.
In front of the card are two rosettes, which I made for
my latest scrapbook layout. I made three and only used one in the end.
The green/black/white thing in the foreground is my
laptop, on top of which lies a dark green gadget. This is an ‘e.dentifier’
which I need for online banking. I have become a grandma of a little grandson
in Italy and I’m going to send him some money.
The two plastic bags on top of the laptop are a lovely
surprise. They contain gorgeous charms and were sent to me (all the way from
Australia) because I was voted ‘Star Witness’ at CSI Color, Stories and
Inspiration. They came in these sweet little bags. I was really chuffed! (Is
that a terribly British word? OK: it means ‘very pleased’)
That’s it for today. I’ll try to visit as many of your
desks as I can over the course of the week (Yes, I like to take my time)
Have a great week!
Lisca

Ah Lisca, am jealous of your Valencia trip, what wonderful photos. Definitely on our to do list in terms of touring Spain..the more we see the more we love it! I feel right at home at your desk today..oddly, I even have my bank identifier thingy on hand...and congrats on the grandson, my word your family are spread around Europe!
I'm supervising the munchkins playing happily with their Lego so grabbing a few minutes to do a dash round some of my favourite blogs.
I'm very happy to see your x stitch...it's gorgeous.

Lovely metal charms you have there and lots going on your desk. That is one pretty card to have gotten in the post hugs Nikki 1
Hi Lisca! I went to Valencia in 1978! I was quite entranced, but everywhere I went to in Europe was magical for me then!!! Love the charms! and the postcard! You've a right to be chuffed (learned a new english word today! Hello from the Philippines! patsy
Happy WOYWW! Thank you for dropping by and leaving me a lovely "blog hug"! Wow, there's so much to see on your blog today. That is a lovely first Christmas card you got and I would be chuffed as well if I received those embellishments. The first time I came across the word chuffed, I had to look it up!
Wishing you all the best during this blessed season!
Hugs,
