Shake it ...

Hi,

I've been practicing my new found ninja skills today on my husband, that we were taught in our self defense class last night, and I think he's impressed but also a bit sore as I was a bit over enthusiastic demonstrating what we learned and forgot to mention that he may possibly get hit.  Oops!

Here's a christmas card I never got round to posting - it was for my lovely friend Gemma who helped us out last night.

It's a shaker card, I think I've made one before - so when I made it I decided I didn't need to look for any instructions - maybe next time I will as it took a while to figure out.  Gemma liked it though so that's good!

I'd like to enter this card into the following challenges:

Tuesday Throwdown - Baby It's Cold Outside

Do You Stack Up - Pink

Lexis Creations - Anything Goes

Southern Girls - Show us your Sparkle

Thanks for looking!

Reindeer

Morning!!

I'm feeling very Christmassy today!

Here's my latest card - I made it for my best friend at work! I mentioned a while back I'd bought a lovely Reindeer die and I've finally used it.  The material for my reindeer is actually my little boy's coat that he had grown out of and the zip gone!

Stepper Card

Hi,

It's the happy hour here - which means the children are asleep in their beds having an afternoon nap and I have some well earned peace and quiet.

Today I've had a happy crafting parcel through the doors in the shape of a deer die - I can't wait to give it a go, in fact once I've finished this post I'm off to crank up my big shot.  I got it from a site called Capture the Magic - and they sent a little unexpected freebie of some little train eyelets! So thanks very much for that!

Here is the card I made last night - I though I'd have a go at making a stepper card and was surprised at how easy it was.

I'd like to enter this into the following challenges:
