Just Breathe

Hello Nomad friends.  Last night I hosted my annual Harvest/Thanksgiving party, also known as my Pumpkin Party.  I decorated the room in a suitable fashion, made lamb curry, rice and nam breads for 22 people and received the gift of much cake from friends and family.  We ate and partied til the cows came home, slept, got milked and went out to pasture again!!  OK, maybe not quite that long, but it was fun.  I feel blessed, and slightly exhausted!!!  There was also a digi meeting being hosted by Hobbylageret this weekend, so I buckled down this afternoon and made some makes.  I am not usually a fast crafter, but I tried.   

 I made an A5 AJ page.  Used distress oxides and stamps from Rubber Dance for the background.  Then I used a Panduro stencil and Black Soot distress and lightly stencilled the girl.  

The words are also stencilled using TH Christmas Words stencil.

And a CAS Christmas card I made for a very good friend of ours who loves cars.


I used Christmas Ephemera 1 from Stamplorations and a stamped sentiment from Kort og Godt.  Gotta love a bit of CAS.

    Hei!
    Det er så kjekt å se norske julekort på sider jeg besøker! Det er ikke ofte jeg opplever det!
    Ønsker deg en fin tid der du bor nord i fødelandet mitt!
