*speechless*

I can really take and use the graphics you linked?

I saw the "Lie back and think of Captain Crieff" one and actually, for real, turned a bit red. I am so besotted.

Of course hon :) I'm dying for someone to make a Cabin Pressure tree *squees* with polar bears, otters, and lemons. Throw in a few of the paper mache ornaments and it would be brilliant. *pokes you know you want too*

If you want to know anything about me, it's I LOVE CHRISTMAS! So seeing everyone's decorations just makes me squeal with delight, so if someone can use my graphics (a few weren't mine) to decorate, I'd be thrilled. I want to see lots pics though *bounces*

Same ideas can apply to any fandom too, like Dr. Who, HP, star wars...

That really is a lovely tree.

The kids have been making their own for years. One year Laney had a Disney princess tree. You can make anything with those blank ornaments, they are awesome.

OMG. Your Sherlock ornaments are so perfect. Never used Mod Podge, will have to try it sometime!

Brilliant stuff! It basically like really heavy glue. I use it to make my potions books.

Can you post a couple ornaments for me. My eyesight is pretty piss poor, as you know, so I want to see them up close.

Thanks babe, Sonia :)

I'll email you some close up pics tonight :)

Thanks babe, you're the best!
