Make one Christmas card every week….1…red and gold

 I have joined a Facebook page group to make me get on with my Christmas cards now that the Christmas card club has closed they put up a list to follow if you wish but anything goes is also an option…so this week is red and gold…


Made using a very old 3D embossing folder and sentiment from tattered lace a bit of gilding wax and a couple of gems I am pleased with the look….

Thanks for popping by today ….

It’s over

 Yes it’s all done and dusted for this year just got a few leftovers to eat up then all back to normal I have even been in my craft room….

This is the card I made for my Richard this year…


Thought it was appropriate as we have several hedgehogs that we feed …

It’s blowing a hooley out there tonight and raining hard let’s hope for a better day tomorrow

Using up some crystals

 I have lots of crystals left from my projects so I bought a couple of stamps to help me use them up


I use a sheet of very old Dawn Bibby backing paper to mount the images on….

Are you all ready for Christmas?…I just have my cranberry topped pork pie to get and then I am all finished…I hope you have a lovely time over the holidays whatever you are doing .
