JUST WISHING YOU

Hi Everyone

Well it's a tad chilly today don't you think?

Just right for making Christmas cards!! 

Somehow making Christmas cards in the middle of summer just doesn't feel right to me (but at this point in time I am wishing I had cracked on with them all the same).  LOL!!

So after that introduction there is yet another Christmas card from me today





This used:

Image:  Penny Black "1506J" Just Wishing You
Sentiment: Hobby Art Clear Stamps "Christmas Greeting Set"
Backing Papers:  Dovecraft "Noel"
Hobbycraft Punch:  Snowflake
ProMarkers
White Flock
Chalks
Diamond Stickles
Ribbon, cord and button from the Stash Box

Oh and there is something very rare in The House of Hearts at the moment .. .. so I really do need to mention it .. ..

AN EMPTY IRONING BASKET !!  
WOO HOO !!!

It doesn't take much to keep me happy does it?

Have a great evening everyone.

Love

    Adorable Jules. I love PB's hedgehogs. :)

    And well done on the empty ironing basket. Please take a picture; I'm not sure I remember what an empty one looks like. ;)

    Hugs,

    Well done you .... but could you please explain to me what this looks like ... don't think I've ever seen one ... well not in this house anyway. Great card Jules, I like the colour combination it's understated but looks lovely.

    Wonderful card Jules - hedgies always tick the boxes for me and I love all of it! Had to search for the heart at first - then I found it :) If there's a little silver car drawn up at your door tomorrow, with an anxious face at the wheel and a big load of ironing in the boot - that'll be me then! Love, Di xx

    Congratulations on the empty ironing basket - you're right to enjoy the moment - it won't last long :) Another lovely card with one of my all time favourite characters - that hedgehog is so darned cute. Spotted the heart - thought you could hide it, did you? The ribbon is just gorgeous and looks good with those papers. Elizabeth x
