Hi Everyone
How goes it?
The frost didn't really disappear from everywhere properly here today. Lovely sunshine on the front of the house but frost on the back of the house all day. Very weird!
But now we are back to frost and there is even a bit of misty fog!
Tonight's share is a nice "sensible" make which uses the stamp I won last month from the lovely ladies over at Penny Black Saturday. (Thanks again ladies xx)
Whilst putting all my goodies away yesterday following our "label day" I came across a pad of watercolour paper so decided to go all "arty" and watercolour my image with distress inks. Quite enjoyed myself!!
So here is the first airing of my new stamp .. ..

Image: Penny Black "3994K" Needles and Cones
Sentiment: Computer Generated using font "Zipty Do"
Backing Papers: Papermania "Silent Night"
Nestabilities "Large Deckled Rectangles" and "Small Deckled Mega Rectangles"
Distress Inks
Glamour Dust
Josy Rose: Nail Heads
Ribbons and Cord from my Stash Box
I am hoping that my entry will qualify for this month's entry at Penny Black Saturday where they would like to see "Glitter and Sparkle". It is probably not quite what they had in mind but hopefully it will count.
A great day in the House of Hearts today. Another batch of orders finished so I will need a little trip out to the Post Office tomorrow. I hope the weather will be half decent!
Hubby has just landed home armed with a few supplies for Christmas. I have had to smile as he bought the annual treat of a TV magazine showing the Christmas viewing. We don't normally bother but always get one at Christmas .. .. though I don't know why because he will be moaning now about the pictures they put in to "ruin his viewing"!! LOL!!!
Have a great evening everyone and I'll catch you again tomorrow.
Love

Your new stamp has been beautifully coloured. I have recently bought the distress pens but haven't been successful with them yet. Think it must be the paper I used.
I love the papers and the bow with the gold strand looks stunning.

Lovely 'sensible' card, we do need a few of those along with all the cute don't we?! Perfect design hun.
I'm really really rubbish at water colouring, but I do find it quite relaxing... perhaps I should have another go :o) Hugs, Lisa x
This is pinned and perfect, Jules. I can't even properly express how breathtaking I think this is. So this is what I call "Shut Up" amazing!
Oh, I think it has lots of glitter and sparkle! Just enough!
This is such a fabulous card. The image is lovely and I can see the sparkle and glimmer!
Nature at its "sparkliest"!!! Love the papers and the way you over tied the bit of gold cord with the organza bow.
love the pinecone image, and the sparkle! Things at christmas time just need sparkle, don't they!?
Fabby! xoxo

Oh Jules, this is breathtakingly beautiful - quite, quite stunning!
I laughed about the 'annual treat' - I was out in the fog on Tuesday and bought our annual TV magazine too :) Love to go through it with a highlighter ....... to increase chances of watching or recording the highlights.
Hugs, Di xx
Simply stunning! Love the background papers, they compliment the stamped image beautifully. xx
