Bit grey and wet here this morning, but at least it’s warmer than the snowy weekend we had.  I haven’t been out for days but I am hoping to get out this morning to get a few more Christmas presents now we are into December.

We have a new challenge starting today over on Fab’n’Funky it’s our last challenge for this year so hope you will all be able to join in with us.  Our lovely Chris is the host for this challenge which is: 

CHRISTMAS 


For my card I used a Chocolate Baroque tree stamp and embossed in gold, the backing paper is snowflake embossed with some gold glitter card behind and I added some snowflakes and a sentiment.

Have a good day!

Meet Me Under the Mistletoe

 Good Morning Peeps,

Hope this Monday finds you all well after having a good weekend, it was quite cold here but we had some lovely sunshine too.  Today is quite frosty but beautiful blue skies and sunshine and I am going out for lunch today with a friend.

We have a new challenge starting today over on Christmas with the Cuties where for this month our challenge is:

Our sponsor for this month is the lovely:

For my card I used this lovely Holly Hedgehog image kindly supplied by Polkadoodles, coloured here with Copics, the papers are by Lawn Fawn and MFT, I used a Creative Expressions edging die and the image was cut out with a Sentimentally Yours die, the snowflake die is by Hunkydory to which I added a sentiment from LOTV. Merry Everthing is by MFT and I added some glitter.

We hope you will be able to join in with us this month with your lovely Christmas creations.

Christmas Time

Good Morning Peeps,

Well I hope you haven’t been washed away with all this rain, some of our roads around here were like rivers on Monday and the river through our village is very high though it was a little brighter and drier yesterday.

Today sees a new challenge over on Fab’n’Funky where Buffy is hosting our monthly Christmas Challenge.  Time to get on with those Christmas cards so we hope to see you joining in with us.


 I made a batch of six simple cards using a stamp by Creative Expressions Fabiola Giardinaro, the frame is a die by Phill Martin and the papers are by Lawn Fawn, very sparkly IRL ,  I coloured the image with Copics and added a little glitter and a sentiment.

Have a good and hopefully dry day.

In the Pink at Christmas 
(Nice easy one we just need to see your pink creations, but don’t forget they MUST be Cute and Christmas)

Have a good day.
