Wishing you all a Happy New Year.

 

 Lets hope its a good one, when it gets here...

Thanking you all for your wonderful comments throughout the year, I hope you have a year to remember for all the right reasons.

Take care and above all else stay safe my friends.

Merry Christmas.

 

I think this will be my last post of the year, so I will try make it quick because I know how busy we all are.{ I lied its a long post forgive me...}

This was a quick make and has gone into the box for next year. I used a cuttlebug folder and the jingle bell die is named but right now I can barely walk, so can't drag myself into the room to find out sorry,  its the cold, I feel like the tin man, 😊

DP was the works, that pad has been brilliant and it was only £3 for a 12x12 pad double sided great quality. Glitter round the edge of course, simple one easy to post.So thats it.

*****************

On a silly note, here is a picture of my granddaughter Mia, she always makes Christmas cakes with me from being small, this year did not get in her way, getting this ready to dress up as a gift for someones family, she always makes me smile

 

This was the 'ready to go' result

we also made mince pies and coconut slab cake, all at a safe distance, she has been so careful around me

as you can see, someone went mad with the icing...oh dear....

and if you got this far on this not so short post, here is one little boy sat waiting for Santa, my youngest grandbaby Gabriel, he is a sweetheart and I miss the hugs...

Thats all folks, have a smashing Christmas and enjoy no matter what.xx

CraftyCatz challenge #532 ATG our last challenge before Christmas so come on down.....

 

Morning everyone I hope you had a good week, its all go now isn't it on the run up to the big day. 

Before I forget once again, can I thank every single person who has taken time to send me a card, thanks so much, this is just in case I haven't got round each and every one, its always so touching it really is. 

This week is our last challenge before the break for Christmas so why not come over and join the girls, who BTW made some fab stuff. Our sponsor this week is Bugaboo who kindly provided us with our images from the shop HERE 

Our lovely boss lady Sue is hosting this weeks optional theme which is Something New

I chose Girls Happy Trio for my card

 Coloured with the usual PM and DP is a works pad from last year the sentiments were from another set, some glitter and scribble round the edges bobs your uncle, done.

Now remember last weeks barmaid, the one without teeth, well these three have suffered the same fate, whats wrong with me...don't all rush to answer at once.....anyway, I will stick to my story, 

they are laughing so hard you can see the tonsils...:)

Thats it from us until January 8th when we will be back all fresh and ready for a brand new year of crafting....I hope....I'll be back soon.xx

Another card.

 

Forgot to add this one, I thought I had shown it but can't find the post so here we go.

 Very simple card really, coloured with PM, the paper is from The Works a pad I bought early this year, its choc full of beautiful papers.

Thats it, may stick in the odd challenge if I can remember...these days anything  is possible.:)

Thanks so much for being here, have a lovely safe day.

Last of the Christmas cards....fingers crossed.

 

Hi lovely people hope your enjoying an easy Sunday or are you busy doing anything Christmas related....

Just thought I would add this here....

This one is one of my favourite Mo images, but then again there are sooo many.

Coloured using PM pens die gold card from stash and navy cardstock papermill, the die was a gift last year, and glitter....obviously you know me so well. :)

 

I am entering this into the following.

Mo's ATG using a mo image 

I love PM ATG optional christmas

Thats about it apart from this little ditty, my two youngest grandsons are Minion mad, so I made two little calico bags and transferred the favourite  crazy face onto it, why do kids love weird stuff, put some little minion crayons and book in each one, now I will be honest, the transfers were abit shakey, but for a first try the boys will love, and lets face it, great stocking fillers..:)

Thanks so much if you made it this far, be back real soon.

CraftyCatz challenge #531 ATG

 

Good morning, wow the weeks are just flying now, is everyone almost ready for the 'big' day, I am more or less done, just fresh goods at the very last, and I am blessed to have so much, makes you think more than ever this year, so many are out there with little to nothing, so harsh.

*****************************

OK, so this weeks challenge is hosted by our lovely teamie Nick and she wants the optional theme to be CHEERS. We are sponsored by the brilliant Dr. Digi, they kindly provided all our images and you can win two of your choice if you come and play, they are all in the shop HERE 

 I chose Bev the Barmaid who should have a white toothy smile, sadly I realised to late, so she is just stood there mouth open wide, just pretend it should be that way shall we.......

Coloured with promarkers, paper is scraps from box, the star was a Lidl find and the little circle sentiment was cut from some DP, the washi tape is the works and the Cheers is pc generated.

*******

Can I say a big Thanks to Aussie Annie for the help with blogger, cheers, as you know it worked.xx

Thats it, please pop along and join us and see what the girls have made, this is our last but one challenge so may as well have ago.

Hope you all have a nice weekend, its been very cold here this last week, hardly had the heating off so far so stay warm and stay safe.xx

 

CraftyCatz challenge #530 ATG with an optional twist

 

Good morning, its a cold one here in the NW this morning but after all it is December, can you believe it.!!!!!

OK this week at CC we are doing Say it with Flowers as the optional twist chosen by myself, the team came up with some gorgeous designs all provided from our sponsor SHEEPSKI DESIGNS and you will find them all HERE

I used two of the images Wild Rose and Daisy Panel

I have to be truthful, I am sorry I added the torn vellum to the daisy card, it didn't need it and was scew- wiff but, once I stuck it down that was that........both coloured with the usual PM papers from box, the frame die is from a set if anyone can tell me the name I will be so happy, clever me has no idea.

Hope you will come join us and win a couple of fab images.
