Re: xmas/winter holiday challenge

Excellent OB. Was going to do something similar (baubles on trees and all), but got lazy. lol

Might try something later, but I've been feeling lethargic of late; lots of things on my mine right now .

Re: xmas/winter holiday challenge

Must be just me, but I am already tired of x-mas :-) Since mid of September I receive "invitations to purchase" xmas presents from almost each brand. Can't wait till January to receive the Easter rush :-)

Re: xmas/winter holiday challenge

Wow Olbaldy yours is great.
Thanks Palms for posting this fun challenge.
I made a brush from one of your trees and then found a tut on how to make a sleigh,

Re: xmas/winter holiday challenge

I know this one's not realistic, but you were right Palms; it was fun and a great diversion.

Re: xmas/winter holiday challenge

Amica hope you get over your xmas blues (personally my favourite time is when all the shops have shut and the only thing left is to eat,drink, and be merry )


CathyH that is marvellous, superb. I had a quick look at the tut and the sleigh looks hard

Lyle love the tree and the door wreath hoping to have some time to do a couple later
