A Gorjuss Birthday

Good afternoon peeps... Hope all is well with everyone.   Well,  it is nearly another year over and I wish all mu Blogland friends a very Happy New year and I hope 2014 is kind to you all.

In true Hogmany tradition, the house has been cleaned from top to bottom ready to bring the New Year in, not that I will probably see the bells ...lol...  I am usually in bed by then ..lol..  But I usually get back up to watch the fireworks from Stirling Castle as I can see them from my bedroom window.  

I know that I failed miserably with my News years resolution of this year of blogging more -  so I am setting myself the came resolution for 2014.   

Yesterday I had some spare time between visiting and visitors so I had a wee play at my table.  The image one of the older Gorjuss girls from Funky kits,  the diecut sentiment is from docrafts.  Papers were free from a magazine and the flowers and card candi are from craft stash.  The challenges covered are:-

• Oldie but a Goodie - Tartan
• Crafty creations -  Anything Goes
• Delightful Creations - Celebrate
