Cold, Winter, Wind Something




It felt a bit peculiar making this card for the Stamp Something challenge as the sun is shining today and it's warmed up alot down here. However, couldn't find a stamp with the wind part so settled for this Tilda which is one of my personal favourites as she does look a bit cold!!




I followed the Mojo Monday sketch for this one which is fabulous! Both images are Magnolia coloured with Promarkers and Glamour Dust added to Tilda's jacket and the tree stump. Papers are My Minds Eye and cardstock is from my stash. Used my Fiskars border punch and some "chocolate drops" from Craftwork Cards. So there we have it, another Christmas card completed......that must make a grand total of two!!! The card is actually more green than it looks....that's my wonderful photographic skills for you lol!



The challenge this week is being sponsored by Whimsy stamps so I would strongly urge you to have a go!

Week 2 of Techniques

It’s the second week of Tando’s FB Live and the tutorial was by Jane Royston. This week the colours are more my style. I didn’t have the exact supplies so had to improvise a little. This was the end result... I love doing these tutorials.  I put aside time for me on a Saturday morning and just get lost in the moment...all worries are forgotten for an hour or so.  I would highly recommend it.

Happy Blogoversary To Me!!

Chocolate Somethings

Friday again and Half Term has started! The boys finished school yesterday so hopefully, we've got a fun day together! The challenge on Stamp Something this week is chocolate - everybody's favourite! and there's one stamp I turn to when that word is mentioned. I've followed the sketch on Mojo Monday for this card. The image is from Penny Black and has been coloured with Promarkers. Cardstock is Bazzill Bling and papers are Doodlebug. Matted the image onto some c.s. which has been run through the Cuttlebug and threaded some ribbon through using SU slot punch. Finally added a brad from my stash . A big thank you to Jose for helping me with my images......love the way some of you girls have been putting a sneak peek at the top of your posts and Jose was nice enough (and clever enough) to explain how to do it. Hope you all have a great weekend.
