MERRY ...

everything AND A HAPPY always

Today I have a Stamping Bella image to share, I treated myself with several others

which will no doubt be making a appearance sometime soon here on my blog.

This one is titled 'Merry Everything' and seeing as it is a snow globe I have made a shaker

card with it, couldn't resist.  The sentiment is included & heat embossed in Silver.

If you look carefully you will spot that I have stamp & cut an extra penguin so he moves

around in the snow!

I have used Kraft card blank, flowers, berries, sparkle pin, bark heart, doily, button, ribbon & branches.  The snow is a mix of Flower Soft & Diamond Dust.  Coloured with Promarkers.

The paper is from NITWIT COLLECTIONS

I would like to enter this into the following challenges -

Rudolph ...

Today I want to share a couple of cards I have made using the gorgeous new stamp from

Sylvia Zet and he is called 'Rudolph' isn't he adorable?

I have also used flowers, blossom, berries, doily, fern, holly, ribbon, button, star charm & gold bells.

Coloured using Promarkers of course and the lovely polka dot paper is from
