I remember buying this vellum in Fenwick's Newcastle - it is one of those things that for years was 'too good' to use.

shake and vac
I have no idea how long I've been making shakers but if I was told it was 10 years ago I made my first I wouldn't be surprised!
I know that it is 11 months until Christmas, but I have a plan to make a few cards a month and no panic as the postage deadline approaches (I have this plan every year and it never works).
I. have to say the window on this card was super easy as it is a window with the merry in it from Clearly Besotted. I just cut the 'merry' again in silver glitter to highlight it. If you notice I've even got a soft cloudy sky in the background.
The confetti is some from Pretty Pink Posh and the pound store... so I don't waste the good stuff...

clumsy friendosaurus
Using all sorts of greenery from lots of different Lawn Fawn sets to create some scenery for this friendosaurus who wouldn't blend in no matter how much greenery there was.
I quite like the texture I've managed to colour on this critter but it is his cute tiny hat that really makes me smile.
I have to say the sentiment banner isn't too bad - I dropped a stamp and it became an emergency coverup... 'nuff said...

my little pony
If you are my age and you had 'My Little Pony's when you were a kid you would have found it hard to turn down these cuties from The Greeting Farm. I coloured him with comics to match the (really old) paper from Doodlebug Design, the shaker is full of Pretty Pink Sequins.

neat and tidy
This is about as close as I can get to a one layer card! These Neat & Tangled Scandinavian Prints were a Christmas gift and this is my first play. Stamps like these are going to make me end up buying many more ink colours! The sentiment stamp is a very old stamp from Dovecraft.

it get's you down
Sorry for the shocking photo - the weather has been so dull...
I hate making sympathy cards, but I always like to include some signs of hope...

light up my heart
I was really lucky to get some chibitronics for Christmas - and have just had to have a play - and what is cuter than this oh so cute monster with a little secret - he has a glowing heart :)
I kept it really simple - and I perhaps should have indicated where to press but... I forgot...
I have to say I'm loving my splatters of sliver and I'm pretty impressed with my colouring of his fur too - go me!
