Hi to all you lovely peeps, hope you are all well.
Well we've had rain a plenty and it's moved a lot of the snow, thanks goodness. I was getting quite fed up with snowballs hitting my front window.....little monkeys I here you say..... Oh No!!
Big Apes, about 17 or 18yrs, hoodies with very little mentality. I really wanted them to fall flat on their faces as they were running away!
Well my card this evening (should have been this morning) is for the Christmas Card Club.
We are a small band of crafting friends who make a Christmas card every two weeks taking turns on the theme, so hopefully we'll have cards a plenty ready to post!!
Anyone interested in joining us just pop over to Clare and leave her a message.
It was the turn of our lovely Carol to host and she has chosen
'No Patterned Papers'
I've just bought some new dies and stamps and couldn't wait to use them. One of my resolutions was to use up my stash.... but I didn't say anything about using it with new stash as well, and I have had that stamp pad a long time....hee hee.
Here she is.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful colors. So pretty.
ReplyDeleteVery cute card! Thanks for taking part in Sparkles Monthly challenge xx
ReplyDeleteSorry the snowballs have been flying fast and furious! However, it has not dulled your creativity one bit! I think it is grand you are part of a Christmas crafting group, what fun! You've certainly created a lovely and elegant card here with an adorable Tilda. She is colored beautifully and the shimmering shades you've chosen work so well together. I love them, they are fresh and new to my eyes. You've added great touches that you wouldn't need to have patterned paper. Thank you so much for sharing this with us at Opus Gluei for our bring on the bling challenge. Glad you played with us!
