Holly.....

 I bought this Sue Wilson die a while back and haven't really had much inspiration so I popped on to Sue's blog for some....

 I had only bought the one die with the holly on so the matts and layers are just plain and the poinsettia are from Heartfelt creations with a tonic sentiment and Nuvo drops...

 I really don't but there it was in my holly section of dies unopened....

birthday cards....

I was inspired by a card made by Beverly Fuchs an amazingly talented cardmaker who posts on the facebook page All things Sue Wilson.....and was inspired to have a go ......

made using Sue Wilsons Ivy garden...a couple of spellbinder dies...all from my stash...I had forgotten some of these dies altogether...so thank you Beverly for inspiring me to look in my stash and get crafting...its been a slow start this year,but I seem toge getting myself going again.
Its a glorious sunny day here today but once again cold so I will be crafting and keeping warm....

christmas club challenge 3...Angels or Fairies

this weeks theme was chosen by Granmargaret and was perfect for using some of my older dies,,,,

I have tried two different angles to stop the flare from the silver mirri but it still looks black and not silver....all the dies used are last year or even older Sue Wilson festive collection .....lots of glitter in the background and a tonic sentiment.....
If you would like to see all the other girls creations the links to their blog are on my side bar....
Thank you for visiting today I really appreciate it....

clearing up stuff on my desk.....

I often start a project and then for some reason stuff it all in a cello bag and put it to one side....do you do that?...well I have decided that since I can do much cutting ect I had better revisit some of these bags and finish them up into a card....

I had done everything except the sentiment.....and the nuvo drops...
the embossing folder is crafters companion,the die Sue Wilson and the poinsettia are heartfelt creations....
I hope you are having fun in your craft room today...I will be finishing off some colouring sat on the sofa.....thanks for popping by today.....
