Tee hee everyone .. .. just for a change I thought I would share a Christmas card today LOL!!!
I have spent the afternoon with my Mum .. .. I sat putting inserts into my stack of Christmas cards whilst Mum sat playing her DS. Not bad for 80 is she? Plus we put the world to rights a bit and had a laugh together.
Once my cards are all packaged up in their cellophane packets with their labels etc Mum always goes through them all looking for the heart. I told her she was being promoted today to my Quality Control Supervisor .. .. she was well impressed LOL!!!
So here is my little share of the day
This used:
Image: Forever Friends "Cup of Cocoa"
Sentiment: Computer Generated
Backing Paper: Pink Petticoat
Go Kreate Die: Scalloped Square
Josy Rose: Nail Heads
ProMarkers
Diamond Stickles
Ribbon and charm from the stash box
I paper pieced some of the image in an attempt to make a massive hole in my scrap paper drawer LOL!!
I do love paper piecing - I think it has made that little bear's coat look super snuggly.
You know what it is tonight? The Apprentice!!!
Woo hoo!!! Hubby says he will cook tonight so that I can carry on with my cards .. .. ... double whammy!!
Right better get creating before he changes his mind.
Have a good evening everyone.
Love

Jules, visiting your blog daily always lifts my spirits!! Today, you've done it again. How cute is that little teddy?? You are so talented! Thank you so much for sharing:)
Love it Jules. That spotty coat looks the bizz and the backing paper goes really well. You are so lucky, my hubby thinks that white thing in the kitchen is just for mulling wine once a year,lol.
Hi Jules, youve done a brilliant job on the paper piecing love that spotty paper. Stunning card to. With love and hugs Shirleyxxxxxx
Hi Jules, this is gorgeous and I love the paper piecing! I love the apprentice too - think Alex deserved to go - he was a bit annoying - my hubby and I thought he looked like paddington bear when he went out to the taxi in his duffle coat! Sounds as if you've got a young 80 year old mum! Trish x
