Good morning and happy "recycling paper day" ;) How was your Christmas Day? Mine was great! And Santa brought me an iPad! Ok, so first things first: a card (for the current A Passion for Papertrey challenge)
I had a real ball playing with this PTI set and this Hero Arts one. You know paper piecing is my favorite technique. Enough said :D Oh, and that carpet... yeah, felt.
Soooo... why four? Well, that's because I've been tagged by my friend Yuki and I have to share four things about me regarding a few issues. Here we go!
* 4 shows that you watch *
Disclaimer: These are 4 shows I used to watch. For the last 3 years and since my son was born, I mainly see cartoons (love you, Backyardigans!), and when I have the time to see grown up tv I just run to stamp, lol!
Grey's Anatomy, Sex and the city, Supernatural, CSI Las Vegas
* 4 things you are passionate about *
My family, stamping, writing, traveling (errr, well, yes, and shopping too!)
* 4 words/phrases you say a lot *
"Mummy loves you more than anything in the world"; the Spanish equivalent for "Oh, crap!"; "I'm going, I'm going!" (this is a classic when any kind of son or pets related dissaster happens), "Let's see what came in the mail" ;)
* 4 things you have learned from the past *
Better make domestic stuff asap because it doesn't get done magically overnight; no matter how much time you spend with your son, he'll ALWAYS need you when you have just started to play with your stamps; red clothes have to be washed separately; stuff you think you absolutely NEED today won't seem so necessary one week later ;)
* 4 places you'd like to go *
The USA, specially New York and all the East Coast up to Maine; Does CHA count. wherever it is held?; Ireland; New Zealand.
* 4 things you did yesterday *
Opened gifts with my family!; Downloaded my 1st iPad apps; Ate Christmas lunch at my father's house; Laundry and cleaning up everything left from Nochebuena.
* 4 things you are looking forward to *
Playing with my stamps this holidays; Seeing my mum who is coming for New Year's Eve (she lives far from here, in Malaga -South Spain-); My son's face when he wakes up to the Three Wise Men gifts on the morning of Jan 6th; Our trip to the USA next summer if crisis allows it!.
* 4 things you love about winter *
Snow, Christmas, the overall coziness at home while outside is freezing (snuggly blankets, candles, scented oil, hot cocoa...), cute hats.
* tag 4 friends to play along *
I'll be back later to tag them!
Thanks for visiting!
