Lilies

Hi all welcome from a dull miserable North East coast of Scotland, a real change from last week.
Another floral image today, this one from Bugaboo, I have enjoyed colouring them using Promarkers and an embossing folder from Tattered Lace, I'll add a sentiment when I know who it's being sent too, also kept it flattish for posting.

Yuletide Greetings : Winter Foliage

Today's Challenge at Make My Monday was chosen by Emma and the theme she would like to see "Winter Foliage" so think, ivy, holly, pine cones, fir trees, berries etc, it doesn't need to be a Christmas card.

My card was made totally from die cuts from various companies , holly leaves from Joanna Sheen, Pine branches and cone base by Spellbinder, cone segments cut from a sizzix pansy/viola die, each piece was less than 1cm across, were embossed and approx  25-30 added to each base. Sentiment from Tonic with a mat I cut by hand.   I wish I had added a mat behind the embossed one to give some contrast, but overall am reasonably pleased with the result.

Embossing

It's my choice for the challenge at Make My Monday today and I would love to see your embossed creations wet or dry. I have used a Tattered Lace corner folder  and a sentiment that was free with a magazine.

Good morning to everyone, hope you are all well, hard to believe Christmas is less than 6 weeks away. Most of the gifts I am giving are bought and wrapped, only waiting on my elder son to give the last of the items ordered to my younger son, it's easier to have deliveries made to him as he arranges them to go to his work, I've lost count of the number of times couriers have failed to deliver to my home, ok we are rural, with no street names to help, there are reliable companies who manage no bother, but there are some who have said that our address doesn't exist or there was no-one at home when they did not even come to the right place.

Husband's back is continuing to improve, he remains frustrated and now knows what he can and cannot do, but the dratted bell no longer rings continually and for that I am grateful.

Peace

No colouring or stamping today's quick card was made using bits I had in my stash.The ribbon isn't nearly as bright in real life but not as dark as the card.
