Someone Special




What a change in the weather today, the sun is already shining and although it is frosty it looks like being a lovely day. The snow eventually cleared yesterday afternoon, we had more on Sunday than during the winter months, my poor daffodils have taken a beating they were almost past though.

Merry Monday Guest Designer Card




Thank you so much to the wonderful team at Merry Monday who gave me the opportunity to play along as a guest designer this week! This week’s challenge is to create a card using pinecones, greens and the word Believe. 

My card sentiment is from TLC and the image found on a free website, I' afraid I don't have any suitable stamps and didn't want to use diecuts. I kept my card clean and simple with a touch of glitter glue on the cones and pine needles.

Many Thanks to the team for inviting me to play along with them.



Make sure you head on over to the Merry Monday blog and check
out all the cards.

Blue Christmas





I've made this card twice before but had forgotten just how long it took to fold the stars. This colour combination fits in with a couple of challenges, and the inspiration came from Case-ing Christmas the star, 52CCT use punches/dies and  Tis' the Season and Christmas at Sweet Stampin blues.
