How Lucky?

I have been really lucky this month and have won some fab blog candy - Big thank you to Lisa - Crafting Diva and also to the Whiff of Joy peeps, can't wait to receive the stamp and have a play.


Have had a lovely day today and have sat and crafted for three hours whilst watching Ballet Shoes on TV. As a result I am super early in starting my 2009 Christmas cards and have completed 3. Ok to be really honest I am soooooo late now for 2008 I will have to save for next year.

I used my ATC as a topper for this card and used DC backing papers and had another go with my Big Bite ( or should that be bitten???). I seem to have difficulty using this as I always seem to squash the brads ... might not know my own strength

Again I used DC backing papers and Magnolia stamps from this years Christmas range. I used promarkers to colour in .
Lime Green - Baubles
Ruby/Vanilla - Dress & Stockings
Ruby - Baubles
Hair - Satin & Cinnamon
I know this is a really simple card but I am quite pleased with the way its turned out. I think I spent about 20 minutes trying to place the dam things!!

A finding a common theme in my crafting - lots of mistakes - how come glue and tape gets stuck to your backside when you haven't even moved?

Got to go and pick no 2 son up now so back later
