Evening all! Phew, what a day! My boss is on holiday now until the kids go back to school, and it has been manic. First day back after the weekend and I am shattered already. Mind you, that could have a lot to do with not sleeping well for the last two nights. I am hoping that "dead on my feet" will ensure a decent night's kip tonight.
I'm well into my Christmas card making now, ahead of schedule for a change, but as the majority of my cards need to be posted, and UK postage is now so scary, I have gone for bijou cards this year - small and uncluttered, to try and keep some of the costs down. Here is another one of those...
For this little one (6x4 card base) I have used
Lili of the Valley's Polar Pair
Painted with Distress Inks (ReInkers)
Matted on a layer of Bo Bunny Double Dots paper
Sentiment is Personal Impressions
Woodware Snowflake punch and a pink pearl from stash
Voila!
And before anyone asks, yes, of course I ordered some of the new release from Lili! I'm really quite excited about a new batch of rubber plopping onto the doormat, especially as it will contain the new James the Bear stamps. Do you think I need to get out more? Nah, I'm happy here!
At Dorte's request I am entering this in the ABC Christmas Challenge
Q is for Quick (even though it wasn't!)
Hugs, Squirrel xx
PS. I have candy on offer in case you missed the post - link to it is in my sidebar
