Q at the Alphabet Challenge

 

Welcome all friends and followers thank you for taking the time to pop in and leave a comment.

This fortnight at the Alphabet Challenge Billie has asked that we include a "Quote" on our card I look forward to seeing your makes.

I probably cheated more than a little as I used a Crafter's Companion Die for the Bah Humbug which I am using as a quote . My Scrooge image free from The Graphics Fairy,  pop over to the challenge blog to see my teamies cards 

This card is for hubby who loves the movie.

Christmas Present

Today our challenge at CD Sunday was chosen by Pamela and it gives loads of scope on how you interpret it. You could make a card with an image of a  Christmas present or you could look at what a Present day Christmas means to you, or the changing Christmas traditions, we see far more Christmas Markets in our towns and a Christmas Eve showing of IT's A Wonderful Life or a Christmas Carol is becoming more popular especially in independent cinemas, as a family we have been to showings of both.

We also have the things we like to do in the run up to Christmas, I have Christmas themed novels I like to read and I especially love watching the Christmas films we have purchased over the years.

You can probably guess from my card that a Christmas Carol is a favourite film and reflects one of our Christmas Traditions.It's for my younger son who quite happily watches several of the versions we have. The banner is from The Graphics Fairy and the sentiment from Create with TLC ( Pauline offered to personalise the sentiment when I  purchased her Christmas Club digis a few years ago ) I added the Bah Humbug die cut by Crafter's Companion as a stopper .

Head on over to the challenge and see the other DT cards then please join us, as long as you use an element from a CD and name the CD you used you will be eligible for a top 3 pick and a prize from Pamela, I look forward to seeing your creations.

Dreams Really do Come True

Sentiment from TLC
Paper from Far Far Hill and Paermania Digital Designer

We've been lucky enough to have had some lovely sunny days , still on the cold side but it is lovely to see the sunshine, even managed to get some more planting done. I love the image and sentiment I used on this card birds for the Spring time, we have blue tits exploring the nesting boxes just now and the sentiment simply because I find it inspiring

Vintage Christmas

It's a long time since I made a vintage / shabby chic card, but it meant that I could use up lots of little bits of leftover paper.
 Started the dreaded Christmas shopping as well this weekend, my gifts either need to ready for the second week in October, when I am going to Renfrewshire to visit my mother or be posted.
 I am also going to Edinburgh at the end of October for the day taking the 6am train down arriving at 9.30 and returning on the 7.30 pm, it will be a long day , train tickets are booked and I am looking forward to the day out shopping.
