Waiting ...

Purchased this stamp on release, it is so adorable, I am a sucker for a cute image.

Layered up and a bit of paper distressing.

Coloured with Promarkers, hand stitched, charm & flowers.

Sentiment, berries & papers.

I would like to enter this into the following challenge -

Thinking of You ...

No Christmas card today, almost done on that front!

I have made this pretty little blue embossed card using an

embossing folder that I purchased a while back.

I have used the folder again on the inside and cut away the circle.

Very simple really but beautiful don't you think.

I have used papers, ribbon, charm, sentiments,gems, flowers & tulle.

All hand stitched for a change!

Take care, love x

Warm Tidings ...

I have been making some 'quick' Christmas cards to boost my supplies and I 

have made several along the lines of this one.

I say quick, still hand stitched!

I have used the gorgeous papers from Pink Petticoat called 'Christmas Kraft Organics'

they are just too gorgeous.  Plain white card for the border, edge punch, gingham,

string, bells, sentiment, mittens & finally an old heart punch.

Thank you for visiting my blog today, take care, love x

With love at Christmas ...

Well today is a month long challenge over on the 

Joanna Sheen Challenge Blog

titled 'With Love at Christmas'

and I could not resist the new House Mouse Christmas Project Book!

This is my first 8x8 card, perfect for these pesky little mice.

The inside to match.

Finally a close up of the decoupage.

I printed my decoupage onto Elegance Satin cardstock because I wanted to

make my little cuties pop by colouring them with my Promarkers.

I have used the main image, inside image and papers from three different

projects in the book so you can see they really mix and match well.

I have also used ribbon, charms, snow, mirri, star, sentiment and red cardstock.

Card blank and plenty of hand stitching!

As the challenge will last for a month the winner will receive

a £ 30 Joanna Sheen gift voucher.

I hope you can come and play along with us?

Thanks for popping by, love x
