Fun Fold

 

Welcome to the latest challenge at MMM where Sue has chosen "A Fun Fold" as our theme.

I have had very few opportunities to craft as we have lots of work going on in our New Home, we'd ages to wait for tradesmen even getting quotes for the work seemed to take ages.Every room in the house seems upside down.

I'm afraid I had to search my Drafts folder and this was the only card that was remotely suitable.

Image and die cut poinsettia from Hunkydory.

Many thanks to all who visit and leave a comment, I appreciate the time you take to do this.

Happy Christmas

 I am really so far behind with my Christmas cards this year so when Carol chose anything goes for the theme this week at CD Sunday it had to be a Christmas card. There are loads of CD's with Christmas images, papers and sentiments so it shouldn't be hard to find something suitable.

Topper from Hunkydory, papers from Creative Crafting World, A Winter's Walk in the Countryside and Kameo Cards Plaid CD.

Remember to use something from a CD on your card.

Christmas Houses

I bought a few Hunkydory Little book selections on Ebay at the end of last year and decided that they mustn't lie in the drawer for ever, Teamed with papers that were free with the Die Cutting Essentials Christmas Special and some Spellbinder die cuts. Another card to add to the Christmas Box.

A pleasant day here now after a wet start, not too hot thankfully. We had quite a few birds nesting in the garden this year and have been putting nuts and fat balls out on a daily basis, we are now going through at least 8 fat balls a day and often see 30+ birds at the feeders.It's lovely to see them.

In The Garden

I had a few last minute cards to make so used some Hunkydory  Little Book toppers teamed with papers from Kameo cards and Creative Crafting World, A Winter Walk in the Countryside CD .

I think I have everything organised now, just last minute food shopping to do, the family finish on the 23rd for 3 days  hubby says he will collect them when they finish work, so we will probably eat out in Aberdeen before heading home.

Thanks to everyone who has visited and left comments on my posts I appreciate the time you have taken to do this.
