Is it Friday?

Hi there!
I'm kinda lost with the days here ... In fact sitting in my Aunts cosy little home in the peacefulness ... The rain lashing on the windows and the cat's gentle breathing as she sleeps next to me, I could be forgiven for forgetting that in 10 days time it will be Christmas Eve! 
At home I would be in the hustle and bustle of the Christmas shoppers ... panicking about what I have and haven't got ... but that can all wait until next week....
My best gift this year has been having this time with my Aunt and seeing her getting stronger each day 

I have a few more tags to share ... I made them yesterday whilst she slept


I cut out the pockets on my Cameo before I came here... printed the tags on my computer and cut them with a sizzix die tags


Just little pieces of papers to decorate and some holly leaves and berries


A whole big spray of the holly and berries only cost me £1.50 from Wilkinson's Store and I can make heaps of things with one spray ... 


Ok so maybe the leaves are a bit big but I think these will look really pretty on the present I haven't got yet ... Lol! Well I have got some but there are quite a few yet to buy ... No doubt come the day I will be organised ... I hope! 

I hope you are having a lovely day wherever you are ... Thanks for stopping by 

Till soon

Your tags are beautiful, Ros, don't fret, you will get everything done in time as you have had some time to rest before the hustle and bustle comes again! So glad you are enjoying your stay with your aunt. Happy Friday!

Beautiful festive tags, Ros. I love the the pockets and pretty holly.
My Cameo as also been used quite a lot over the past few weeks. I love to make gift boxes and it makes life so much easier when you can cut a few at a time.
Hope your aunt is feeling much better today xx

And you're so right Ros... isn't it the best Christmas present to have your Aunt around and to enjoy each other's company? It's wonderful to have such a strong relationship. Your tags look very festive! Ira x

All your gorgeous tags make me think I should start making some, too... I had "eliminated" tags from my Christmas presents some years ago. Mmmmmhhhhh.
