Christmas Critters

 Morning all. It's time for a new challenge over at Cardz4guyz.  We are looking for 'Christmas Critters' on your project please.  I did a lovely card with an ice skating mouse on for this one then realised it wasn't very 'Guy' so I did another.

And, just because I'd already done it, here's the other one.

I'm so pleased with these.  I love the cute images from Clipartprintdesign on Etsy.  I have a load of images I haven't got to yet.

Please pop over and join in the fun.

Thanks for reading.

Quicky Christmas

 Evening all.  If you haven't made all your Christmas cards yet, we have the challenge for you over at Make my Monday.  We would like to see 'Quick and CAS' Christmas cards please.  I used an image from Hunkydory and, literally just matted it and added a sentiment.  It feels a little bit like cheating if I'm honest.

It's so cute I don't think it matters that it is so simple.

Thanks for reading.

Put a bow on it.

 Morning all.  I'm a little late with this one as things are pretty chaotic at the moment.  Over at The Alphabet Challenge this week we are up to 'R for Ribbon'.  I have, appropriately for this time of year, decided to wrap a few pressies in ribbon for this one.

I know it's a very simple  idea but I'm really please with the result on this one.

Thanks for reading.

Show us your Sparkle.

 Afternoon all.  It's the last Cardz4galz before Christmas and, as we are in the party season, I'd like to see some 'Sparkle' on your projects please.  I used some pretty glitter card for my die cuts on this one.

I used white glitter card for my circle and pale blue for the two snowflake layers.  I'm really pleased with this one.  I was happy to use up some pretty paper scraps for my scalloped squares and I think they all went so well together.

It's my theme this time so please pop over and join the fun.

Thanks for reading.

Christmas trees and flowers

 Sorry this is late.  I came back from my hols with mum and promptly went down with the lurgy.  I had cards done but never got near the computer to be able to post my blog posts.  Firstly, we are looking for 'Christmas Trees' over at Make My Monday  I chose a lovely tree image I'd had from Etsy and used some backing paper covered in foil trees for my card.

I added extra sparkle and shine using red foiled card and gold glitter card.

Next, over at Sparkles Christmas Challenge we are looking for 'Poinsettias' please.  I used a couple of sheets from an old Hunkydory pad and decoupaged my poinsettias.  I'm quite pleased with the results.

I was a bit dubious about how this one would look but I'm really chuffed.  I, again, added extra sparkly using gold glitter card.  The tiny bits out of the die cut frame I reused in the flower centres.

Please pop over to the blogs and join in the fun.

Thanks for reading.
