Jingle Bells

 I am winding down now and not really making many more Christmas cards as I have made so many this year through out lockdown...but I do love this little die....


its really old from crafters companion but I think its just perfect for a 5x5 card with a penny black sentiment....

Hope you are all well and keeping safe, I have had my booster jab now and after a day feeling really terrible am now back to normal...and hope that you are enjoying your crafting.

Thanks for popping by today.
