Hi everyone! today is our fortnightly friendly challenge with our Christmas Club and it's Sue P's turn http://susiesplanet.blogspot.co.uk/ and she has chosen carol singers. If you want to peruse.....big word for me on a Sunday lol......all the other girls work their blogs are at the left side of my blog....and there will be some gorgeous stuff!!! Well yesterday was fun the doctor had given me 'bombs' to take for my chest infection so that has almost gone and my crafty club I go to on a Monday were all going to the Harrogate craft fair..soooooo the eldest grandson stepped in to 'babysit' the hubster and I went in our car instead of the coach with all the girls just in case I was needed quickly at home. I had a great day it was just nice to get out after all the weeks of stress and just chill and have a laugh with the girls and of course buy some crafty goodies. I bumped into Carole http://cjpcraft.blogspot.co.uk/ she is a former work colleague and it was so nice to see her but as she said we are crafting buddies now LOL
It wasn't as busy as it normally is and lots of exhibitors that usually go were not there but I got everything I needed and some extra 'bits' I would like to thank my crafty bud and friend Jayne for keeping me company in the car and all the girls for making it a great day!!! I will be round all your blogs soon TFL and lots and lots of huggles xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Sue xxxxxxxxxxxxhttp://pixiescraftyworkshop.blogspot.co.uk/

Aww so pleased you had a lovely day out Sue, just what you need, hopefully the bombs will do the trick.
Well we're both on the Jingle Bells for our cards and your card is fabulous, lovely image and your sheet music is so terrific as it has a pretty design on it.
You take care and hoping DH is well, hugs Kate x
I'm so glad you had a good day at Harrogate Sue. You have had such an awful time of late that it must have been great to let your hair down with the girls - and spend of course!!!
Your card is great. Your little singer is a real sweetie. Love the musical score in the background. Love and hugs Christine xx
Great to hear you had a nice day out at Harrogate Sue. It was well deserved my friend. Your card to day is stunning and the music sheet as a background looks great too. Hugs Rita xxxx
I just love this card! Cute image, fab colouring and the layout is gorgeous. Love how you've styled up the bow and good to hear you had a great day out.
Glad you enjoyed your well deserved day out and spending spree Sue, nothing like a bit of retail therapy to boost the morale. Your card is fab and the Tiddly Inks image is a popular one with the CCC girls this time. Love the music backing papers and pearl dots.

Hi Sue, me wonderful little blogging matey.
what a really superb creation. Love it.
That image is so cute, and the Jingle bells paper is fab.
So glad you managed to find a bit of you time, and attend the Harrogate show.
It does make sense to get a little bit of you time, and then it refreshes the batteries so to speak.
Biggest ((( HUGS ))) to all in the J household.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.
A day out was just what you needed Sue and it sounds like you had fun!! Love your card, carol singing takes me back to my Young Farmers days when we used to get transported around in a cattle trailer getting more and more inebriated as the evening went on...those were the days!! xx
perfect....loving the image and the use of the Carol music backing paper......fab card xxxxxx
She's sweet Sue and in tune too I think!!lol. Lovely card. Zx
Glad you had a good day. Your card is delightful for Sue's CCC challenge, Sue (and I'd love to see it too at CHNC challenge extra for October) x
Now this is darling! Love the pretty dies with this sweet image, of course the papers & pretties that you've used to make it so special. Happy to hear you are feeling much improved and were able to get out & enjoy some crafting time. Take care of yourself...TFS & Big Hugs.

What a fun and festive Christmas card Sue! I love the music paper, that caroler is just as adorable as she can be. Love the mats and the flower too. So happy to hear that your grandson babysat the hubby and that you got to get out with some crafty friends! Also glad you got some meds for your chest cold. I hope you will feel right as rain soon!

Love the music and the little caroler! So glad you got a chance to get out with "the girls" and have a day of fun!
Happy to hear you had a chance to finally relax a little bit and get some time away. It certainly helps the Spirit somewhat and makes it a little easier to go on. Love your card. – Jim
Hope the hubster is doing much better now.

Sounds like you had a wonderful day catching up with friends and buying lots of crafty goodies.
