Wrapped In Tinsel

Dunno about wrapped in tinsel, after the week I've had I think it ought to be bubblewrap, especially around my head for when I bang it on the wall!  Is there such a thing as a calm work week? 

Welcome to my new Followers!  Hello chaps, lovely to have you here and I hope my strange ramblings and odd postings will keep you entertained and that we are together for a long time to come.

Anyhoo, having exhausted my new James stamps I've started with the older ones so here is today's for you:


This is LOTV James Wrapped In Tinsel
Painted in Distress Inks (ReInkers)
Papers are all First Edition Silent Night
You can just see the silver on the stripes, it's a shame you can't see the sheen on the snowflakes
Sentiment is LOTV Simply Sophisticated
Snowflake punch is of course Martha Stewart
Gems are from Dovecraft Back To Basics

I now have an issue with my beloved Toad and these James cards.  He doesn't want me to send any of them out!  He asked last night if we could keep them to put on the mantelpiece for Christmas.  What a sweetheart.

Well, the weekend is here at last and apart from a tail trim and colour tomorrow, I plan on having a quiet and relaxing one with lots of crafting (and hopefully the weather forecast will play right into my paws so I don't feel too guilty)

Whatever you are doing this weekend, have a happy one

Hugs, Squirrel xx

    I love this stamp to bits though, unlike yours, my colouring leaves a lot to be desired! Simply lovely. I can understand why Toad wants to keep them all!

    Lovely card Squirrel :D Great layout and James is sooo cute every time :) Maybe Toad is right :) And even if you do decide to send them, it's always really lovely to get comments like that about your makes, especially from a man :D

    Happy weekend, enjoy your tail trim tomorrow :D
