95 days til Christmas!!

So now I've got your attention and you've gone into shock!!  Even I got a wee bit dizzy when I saw how close Christmas is.. Oh have you noticed that the shops have started to put Christmas things on the shelves?
To add to my collection of 2012 Christmas cards - Here is another one I've put together..
I've used the Memory Box Winterland Tree die, one of Bizzy Bec's digi christmas collection - Nick's christmas star and some of Bec's lovely ribbon. As you can see Nick is going to pop that Star at the top of the tree! You can buy both and much more from Bizzy Bec's online store here.

Now I've kept Nick quite flat as of course I'll have to post him and he's just the right size to pop into a standard envelope.
I hope this is the kick start you need to get into starting your Christmas card collection for this year. Now don't forget there is still time to create a card and enter it into Bizzy Bec's September Challenge ~  'MALE CARD with a TAG/ TAGS. Enter and you could win

The prize for this month is this gorgeous stamp from

 Wild Rose Studio Christmas Stamps
"BELLA with SLEDGE

Isnt she cute?  I look forward to seeing what you can create.

My First Chrismas Card for 2012

Happy Sunday everyone,

I've just spent a lovely day resting at home and putting together this card. My first of many christmas cards to give away. 
I've used a Magnolia image and coloured her with my trusty copic pens. I've added some stickles to make her glitter, liquid pearls, Memory box Frostyville Border die and the paper I used was My Minds Eye (and I loved this paper so much I have two packs) and yes it was last years release and I've only just used the first papers out of the pack.. You buy it cause its so pretty and then it just looks at you and says "I'm too pretty to use".. ha ha 
Now don't forget you can get the Magnolia stamps, glitter and paper from Bizzy Bec's online store 

 Please let me know what you think .. 

Now dont forget you still have time to enter this month's Bizzy Bec Challenge of Spots and Stripes!!! and below is the fab Winterland Tree Memory box die you could win!!

Hugs

A small technical problem

Hi guys,
I needed to clean my blog up as its got a virus in it some where.. and when you click on it.. you go to another website and not mine.. sigh..

I might even have to change my blog completely..OH nnooo..

Update - I've found the little bugger..lol and will get this blog back to some semblance of the normal over the weekend.. i had to take all my links off including my DT and Candy info..

Thank you for your patience - your call is important to us - we will be with you shortly.

A little creation!

Evening everybody..

I thought I would share a little creation. I made this as a entry to the local scrap book store as they have a monthly card creation competition - you have to buy the pack and you're only allowed to use the card/embellishments that are contained within the pack. It was a struggle with using the paper as it wasn't something that i would typically use and there were only 2 sheets double sided.. as you can see - i've used three sides.. ha haha



please let me know what you think..

As an added bonus I found a couple of online challenges to enter it into:

The Crafty Pad: Paper piecing.
Totally Paper crafts - #125 Lots of Layers

Just in case your are wondering - the lovely die is a memory box and I grabbed it from Bizzy Bec's online store..

Have a great night whatever you are doing.
