I hope you've had a lovely weekend, and that it wasn't too wet and windy where your are. The sun is shining here this morning so finger's crossed it's going to be a nice week.
We're staying in a cosy little bungalow called Robin's Nest. It's so cute, has everything we need. We've been settling in over the weekend, as well as catching up with family.
It's the start of a brand new week. Only 6 more to go ..... and it will be Christmas Eve. Just saying!!
We were actually looking at Christmas trees over the weekend .... not that we need a new one, but ..... they were soooo pretty!
I'm starting this week with another Christmas tag ...... I'm really getting into the spirit of things now .... Ho! Ho! Ho!
I'm playing along with the 12 Tags of Christmas with Loll & Friends
I'm up to Day 7 ....... and I've gone for the CAS look again. (I'll have to make do with this Christmas tree for now!)
If you've been following this years 12 Tags event you will have seen all the fabulous, festive designs from Loll and her Friends, along with all the gorgeous tags in the link up gallery ..... there's so much inspiration, and we all need tags at this time of year! Go on ..... join in the fun!
As I said, I've gone for the CAS look again, using one of my favourite embossing folders ..... SU's Softly Falling
I stamped the tree first onto my tag, using Olympia Green Versafine ink, and then ran it through my Big Shot using the EF
A touch of glitter on the branches, and random 'snowflakes' adds some festive sparkle. And of course a little greeting on the bottom .... and that's another tag done.
I'm getting quite the collection now.
I might even have some parcels to put these tags on later. We're off to the Christmas Markets in Manchester later this afternoon ........ I'm so excited! Gluhwein and bratwurst, delicious hot chocolate and Stollen, and hopefully a few nice bits and bobs to fill Christmas stockings.

There won't be too much mulled wine though ...... we're meeting up with some friends there later and then we're off to a Brazilian restaurant ..... I think its Brazilian anyway.
Thanks for popping by .... enjoy the rest of your day.
Cheerio until next time .....
