Woah! It's Snow!

Wow!!!
It's really been coming down today
Pretty heavy all day
Think we've got about 6 inches deep!
Sisco has been a little bit reluctant to go out, as its so deep
I scrambled to get my camera to take a pic because
when she went out she sprung across the snow like a little lamb
So cute!













See? Look at the prints!
Like a little lamb!











































'Ready to come in Mummy, Ma paws are cold'













We dressed up warm and went out for a walk
It's surprisingly mild out
It is so so pretty






























I kept trying to take a pic of this stumpy tree
Check out the spooooky mist!













Some obviously got too cold to finish the poor snowman's face!




























































Back home to Sisco cuddles, Christmas movies and hot chocolate
We watched National Lampoons Christmas last night
We're starting a list
Any suggestions for Christmas films?

















Stay warm!

A Candy Coloured Christmas

Hi!
Hope you're all getting prepared for Christmas
I have a few more bits to buy and I'm done
Online shopping is a lifesaver!!!!
In the last hour we've had quite a bit of snow fall
I hope it holds out until we go to Wales
Travelling in the snow is a nightmare!

Here are some pieces I've been working on in Illustrator
It's been really fun getting back into using it again
Hope you like them!
(As you can see, I was on a bit of a pink kick!)

♥ Rockabilly Panda Love ♥

Here is a new piece I have been working on in illustrator
Haven't actually worked much on Illustrator since the end of Uni
Actually missed it a bit!
Kind of Panda Obsessed lately!

Little Miss Sisco Lazy Bones

Sisco HATES the cold.
So lately her days have consisted of sleeping, eating and maybe a bit of a wash
She's definately getting her winter chubs!
She has started lying on the desk behind my laptop because the desk is against the radiator
She looks so cute fast asleep!

'Hey Mummy, Needz any helpz?'

















'Look into my eyez.....Go get me some foodz'

































































Check out those chewable little toes!

Cute and Functional Gift Ideas...And my over-excitable Gift Giving!

I used to be so bad when it comes to gifts!
I'd see something amazing for someone, get REALLY excited about it
Then end up giving it to them early because I was SO excited
I remember one year buying my boyfriend gifts for his birthday
Usually he'd have them a few hours later
Did I mention, this was about 2 weeks BEFORE his Birthday?!
It usually went like this...
Oh...I got you something GREAT today!
You want a hint??
Ohhhh. you wanna see it?
No, it's supposed to be a surprise.....
Oh..... but you're gonna LOVE it!!!
Ahhh... You have other presents!
Close your eyes
You can have one early

Yes. That year he had nearly all his presents early!

I was rescued by online shopping!
By the time the gift comes, I have managed to calm down
What can I say? I'm just a very excitable person!
I love Modcloth!
I love a gift that is cute and useful!
Hope you love my gift ideas!
