A quick reminder
That the Christmas Banner Contest ends tonight at midnight - we’ve one more entry in (number 11) so there’s just enough time to squeeze one in before the bells start chiming.
There has been some muttering that the cd prize might contain (*sharp intake of breath*) tracks by the esteemed Ms Black and Mr Humperdinck.
Ah no. I’ve been studying your festive memes, particularly the favourite Christmas track question, so rest assured will be the epitome of Christmas good taste and cheer…
Meanwhile, a few Christmas links to hopefully get you in the mood for a little banner creation:
- Stock photos for Christmas at Stock Xchng.
- Elf Yourself - with a nifty crop, zoom and rotate toolset you too can add your own picture and create a dancing elf e-card for friends and family.
- From Flickr, Gustav the red-nosed weimareindeer.
- Conspiracy Carols lets you add a “secret” message to a Christmas carol. Hmm.
- The Joy of Baking Christmas collection. Yummy.
Update: I’ve now updated the page with the 11th banner. Stupid, stupid woman.

We’re going to try the elf thing. Will get back to you on that one. As for baking, I will be starting that next week and will turn green at the site of sweets before it’s over. Thanks for the links.

I got the dancing elf in my del.icio.us inbox today, thank you! It made me smile so much I had to watch it twice. Was that Dizzy? :-)
And Happy Holidays to you and your family too!

Andrea! It’s so nice to hear from you. I’m glad that you’re seeing the del.icio.us links, am planning a post about that very soon.
Hope all’s well, wishing you all the very best for the coming holidays.
