Hi Everyone
Happy Saturday. I hope you are all having a great weekend.
We had a wonderful evening out last night .. .. midday and I still haven't eaten as I am still full!!! (Plus hubby's wallet arrived home safely too .. .. woo hoo!!!).
Lots of jobs on the old "do list" today so I am hoping my day will last ages and ages.
This is my first make of the day using the sketch from over at Sketch Saturday this week.

Image: Cuddly Buddly "Going Down"
Sentiment: Digistamp Boutique "Simply Christmas Greetings"
Backing Papers: Dovecraft Back to Basics "Vintage" .. .. again LOL!!!
Nestabilities: Classic Circle and Scalloped Circle Large
Sizzix: Winter Wonder for the snowflakes
ProMarkers
Glamour Dust
Gems and Ribbon from the Stash Box
Ooooppssss!! Just noticed I haven't coloured Santa's nose!! Sorry about that! Can't be bothered to take another picture and do all the re-sizing and watermarking .. .. so just imagine it a lovely shade of pink!! LOL!!
Time now to start getting the dining/living room ready for the mammoth label day tomorrow and putting together a little inspiration board for everyone.
For those who are new to my blog this is the day that my lovely Sister and I get together with as many members of our families as we can gather together to make the labels for our Christmas presents.
This results in loads and loads of my crafty goodies making their way downstairs in readiness for being put to crafty use .. .. including all those snippets.
You would think that so many of us using them would reduce them considerably for me .. .. but of course tags/labels do not make much of a dent .. .. but every little helps.
I am also hoping to get the Christmas decorations up to make it extra Christmassy!!
If I remember I will try and do a picture of the "calm before the storm".
Right time to get moving all those crafty goodies. But in the meantime if you fancy playing along with the challenge here is the sketch.
Have a good day everyone.
See you tomorrow with my snippet make .. .. which I have a sneaky feeling will be a Christmas present label!!!

In admiring Santa's lovely sparkly beard and hat, I hadn't even noticed that his nose wasn't colored! I'm sure it is now and it's a perfect card!
Beautiful colouring and beautiful sparkle, Jules. It's a pleasure to have you play along with us at Sketch Saturday. Hugs, Lesley
