Hi there!
I'm in a very slow period craft wise at the moment. I've been doodling a little bit on a few Post It notes which you might have seen on Facebook, and I've started my November pencil class in Kit and Clowder.
The reason I'm not crafting much right now is, that I've been having some eye problems since late September. I cannot seem to focus with my right eye when reading and I got new glasses only a year ago.
In October I went to my optician shop and had an extended eye test, which according to them showed absolutely nothing, but since my problem has continued, something must be wrong, so I contacted an eye specialist and am going there for an appointment on next Wednesday. I do hope it's nothing serious.
I'll be quiet till next weekend, where I hope to have finished my November pencil class. Then I'll let you know how it went with the eye specialist. Please send me some positive thoughts Wednesday morning.
Be happy crafting!

Christening in the family
Hi there,
This past weekend was a big thing in my family. The latest addition to it was christened and afterwards was a great lunch followed by coffee and cakes everything arranged by the now parents of three children ages 7, 4 and 5 weeks. I was duly impressed with the work they put into everything.
"Linus" is the name of the little 5 week old boy, and he's the son of my eldest nephew and his wife. The Christening took place on Saturday - usually it's on a Sunday, but Cæcilies family come mostly from Zealand and it was arranged with the priest, so nobody should hasten back home late Sunday afternoon.
Here is the box project I made for Linus and of course there was a gift inside, which will remain a secret to you. The first photo is the box viewed from above.
I had the shop, where I bought the gift, wrap the box in nice boyish paper and then I added the below tag. When it is opened you get to see the information regarding Linus' birth (except where he was born, because then you'd know where he lives) and Christening. On the back I made a greeting for him, but it's a secret too, what I wrote.
In the meantime, please feel free to leave me a comment if you like my projects and if you'd like to see my cards/projects etc. on a regular basis, please join my blog or my Instagram.

and now from the other side.

I stayed at my big sisters summerhouse and my little sister and her family stayed next door, where we'd borrowed the neighbors summerhouse. So we had some sister time this weekend which was quite nice.
As a thank you for having me stay, I'd knitted a couple of cloths for my sister and to accompany them I'd made the below card to her. I'm happy to say that she liked that.
Well, that's all for now. I'll be back later this week with some inky drawings from week 2 of Inky Art School, which finished on Friday November 1st. I just have to catch up viewing the last video and making the last project.
