Here is my card.
using Elephant on a Sledge
I made a shaker card would you believe but I only had glitter and some silver stars, not the best shaker but don't you love that cute elephant, he is coloured with FM, the bunting is a padded heart I bought from eBay many moons ago for a sewing project and the die is also a newbie...my card stock is PaperMill...
I will see if I can find a challenge or two..
Hope you will come and join us, have a great weekend as its December tomorrow its Tree time for most of us, I love it all when its done but getting there is a nightmare, but the Christmas channel will on to me in the right frame of mind...haha...bug hugs..xxx

Christmas card...


Just thought I would pop this one on before I forget again, trying to get all cards sorted now, its getting so close, and you just know once it hits the first we all done for....
I make something with this image ever year, {I don't know if he has been retired now or not, but she has amazing images HERE}  he makes me smile, a Sassy Cheryl favourite...
Printed out on Kraft card and coloured with FM, then fussy cut.  TH  dies and the little tag was a freebie heaven knows when but it stays in a file and comes out each year, waxed thread was LLC no longer trading sadly, the usual sparkle added...of course...
Don't you just love him...ha ha...
may find a challenge or two...
Once again that's all for today, hope your staying warm...please feel free to leave a comment, blogland needs support right now...

Just been having a play...


Hello all, brrrr its gone mighty chilly round here today, got the heating on and that wind is freezing....[So I'm told..] So, time to have a play in craft room, thought I would try get ahead of the Christmas bits and bobs, aka, table tags, these are for the gifts I always put on the table for everyone, my Mum always did it so I carried it on..
I cut out eleven tags from corrugated card, the star shape was a template downloaded from the web...
Then the fun, flicking paint all over the place, what a mess but worth it I always think..
Next..
Added the frosted berries from my stash, waxed cord also stash, they don't look as painted here but I promise its the same batch...
Next step was to die cut the Believe sign and spray and add just a touch of sparkle, the two small ones are of course for the little ones just added a star to those, they don't need to be reminded to 'Believe' just yet...
That's all folks, I have been trying my best to get on with everything, it really does creep up on you though...ha ha....I know we all have had a year..blah blah...ha ha...
Before I go, this is a bigger one for a pressie for someone else, she loves Christmas with a vengeance..no names...Mia....
Thanks so much for any comments you may leave me, really appreciate my followers....have a great afternoon..xxxx

Morning lovelies, I am scheduling this post as I am off out for a day with my pal Judith, she is also my daughters mil, works well when everyone gets on...ha ha...we are going to our lovely hairdresser Sian, who makes us laugh at every turn with her thick London accent and funny tales, then we shall do a bit of shopping and lunch maybe, who knows, I am just glad to be out doors, even with a walking stick, which I swore I would never use, but hey-ho....phew....right then...
THIS WEEK we have our most lovely Nick wanting the optional twist to be...Something with Wings, we have a fabulous sponsor who so kindly gave us our images to play with...
I used Peace Angel for my card, she looks so pretty and dreamy I think..
She is coloured with Flex markers and the background is done with chalks, the Dream sentiment is a TH die, sparkle is now my 'Thing' apparently until at least the end of January....

DIL birthday card..


Hi Lovelies, I just remembered that I never got round to posting a card I made for my sweet dil Katie, she is the best thing ever and we all adore her...anyway, this time round she was 30...I know...oh to be thirty again..ha ha..onto the card, its a style I use quite abit but this one was very big..
The papers I used are all Minty, Polish papers, they are simply gorgeous, the quality is amazing, I die cut the numbers and the silk crushed ribbon was bought on ebay as was the name, pink netting from the works and all flowers are stash..
I love making this style of card, but I will have to give it a rest before everyone gets bored silly with me...
The box I made also Minty papers and a tiny bottle of sparkle, yes she loves to make the world sparkle too...ha ha
That's it I think I will be adding this to the following challenges...

Thank you so much for coming over and having a look today, I really appreciate it...see you all Friday for our CraftyCatz challenge and DT call..x
