Happy Christmas

 this will be my last blog post for 2020....

and I want to wish you all ....

a Happy Christmas and a better year for 2021.....

I found these crafters companion  dies on e bay and as I missed them when they first came out I was delighted...especially at the price! I was the only person to bid on them so I got them sooo cheap...

the boxes are filled with chocolate coins for the children over the road....

thank you for your support over the last year and all the lovely comments on my creations ...

See you in 2021....take care 

christmas card club challenge 25...use die cuts

 this weeks challenge was chosen by Shaz....and as a predominantly die cutter this challenge was just perfect....

 oh I have had such fun...this is a mixture of cutting on my scan and cut and carnation crafts christmas eve dies...the only trouble is I now need to make a box to put it in ....a really big card....

This is the last challenge of the year and I hope you will pop round all the other girls in the club and look at their lovely cards...the blog links are on my side bar...

take care out there in blog land ...stay safe....

keeping in touch card....

 a little card for a friends Aunt who has had a very lonely time during lockdown...I have been sending here cards to try to cheer her up...

the frame is from the tattered lace collection Picture decoupage.Daisy Hill...the background papers and flowers are from carnations crafts USB...carnations blooms and cut out on my scan and cut...a bit of blue and navy card from my stash....sadly the clear glass beads I used on the flower centre don't show up but they give a lovely texture...

Thank you for popping by today...I seem to have a few new followers on bloglovin so thank you for visiting me...take care 

an anniversary card

 our friends got married this time last year and we had a wonderful day...what a year they have had...a new baby as well....

the background die is from Heartfelt creations...as is the sentiment....the flowers are tattered lace...

I hope you are keeping safe and well,the new tiers start today we are on 2 so not too bad for us...not that we go out unless we need food shopping we are just keeping going and staying busy...

still using up bits.....

 determined to finish all of the projects that I have cut all the bits out for and just not finished...and try and find the top of my desk!

I am really naughty I have a day die cutting and flower making and then slip them into cello bags and put them into a box tobe made up later  ....that later is now...

Heartfelt creations background die and tattered lace flowers..gems for the flower centres...made up at last!

thanks for popping by today I hope you are staying safe and well...we are about to go into level 2 covid tier on wednesday...the rates here are dropping and people are being ultra careful....staying at home and looking forward to making it through to our vaccinations.....

making some foam flowers...

 having a little play I haven't done many flowers with the foam so after my niece gave me some heartfelt creations to try I had a little go....

I used a trifold heartfelt card blank and the round eyelet window die...cover with paper from one of the paper pads...and then made the flowers using oakberry lane blossom dies...a few other little die cuts and a sentiment inside....the hardest part was positioning the magnet to keep the clasp closed...will I remember to do that first next time ...probably not....

hope you are all well out there and staying safe.
