It's Christmas All Over the World Tonight

Ever since I was a child I have been enthralled with Santa Clause the Movie.  It just feels so magical and has that positive feeling attached to it.  I watch it every year without fail on Christmas Eve and of course many other times in the run up to Christmas.  This art journal page was inspired by it and the lyrics have been added to the page too.

Thursday Adventure ~ Westpoint Craft Fair

I am starting this with I AM EXHAUSTED.  It's been a long few days and this morning has exhausted me.  I was a little disappointed with what was at the fair, there wasn't as much there as there has been in previous years.  However I did come back with a few bargains.  Mainly white card and pearlescent card.  I will share photos of the rest here: I will try and use these over the weekend so I can blog what I have used them for.  Although I should be fair and warn you all, I am struggling for time at the moment so it could be a fair few weeks before it appears on here.

Which brings me neatly to the next part of today’s blog...Food. Food has always been a big part of my life from the traditional Sunday Roast to Wednesday’s always being Rabbit Stew at my grandparents house. I try not to shy away from trying food but I admit openly I’m not a fan of spice or chillies or peppers. At school, both primary and secondary, I was bullied for eating salad but I loved it and I still do love salad unfortunately even in adulthood my choice of healthy food leads to bullying and jeering. Apparently I should have been eating chips and burgers {two of my least favourite foods in fact I NEVER eat burgers}. I’ve never been small and I do admit that I’m fat but contrary to what everyone believes it’s not because I eat unhealthy food. I am not fond of Crisp, I love to bake cake but rarely eat it, I co...
