Good afternoon. Whoop whoop, I’ve finally got my computer back! You have no idea what a nightmare it’s been without it. I genuinely didn’t realise just how much I rely on this little machine until it was gone. My mornings always start the same way, a cuppa in hand, my Revitive machine helping with my lymphoedema and me catching up on emails, messages, and everything I missed overnight. And, of course, updating the blog, something I haven’t been able to do at all since the computer decided to throw a tantrum.
Picture this: a bright pink border across the top of the screen and the bottom flashing at me like some kind of warning beacon. Absolutely no fun!
It’s now been checked over, nothing obvious was found, so it’s been wiped clean and reset back to factory settings. Fresh start, clean slate.
I’ve got a bit of catching up to do, but that can wait until later in the week. For now, let’s dive straight into what I started yesterday. I simply couldn’t resist any longer, I just had to open the first door of the 12 Days of Crafting Advent Calendar
⚠️ Stop reading right now if you don’t want to see what’s hiding behind Door No. 1.
This is the Advent Calendar and there are 12 doors to open. You also get a 24 pieces stamp set to go with the calendar, that is not behind one of the doors, it comes seperately.
Here are 4 cards that I have made using a few of the dies and the stamp set. I really enjoyed doing these and I have ideas for a few more.
To find out a little more about the Advent Calendar click on the product list at the end of this post.
One of the biggest challenges of having a completely wiped computer is that nothing logs in automatically anymore. It’s a bit of a nuisance having to sign in to everything again, but it’s also a good reminder of which apps and sites I actually use regularly — and which ones I don’t.
I havent been able to tell you about the very first Stampin' Up! Black Friday Sale. It will start on Tuesday and run until Monday December 1st. Being in the UK there is a bit of a time difference and we get to see the sale from 11pm on Monday evening.
Here is a 'shop here' link for you to click on to have a browse once the sale starts. You can click on this image at any time and it will take you straight to my online store.
Thank you so much for having a read this evening. Please do leave a comment if you have time, I love reading them. Happy Crafting, Tracey x
