Hi Everyone
I wondered if I was ever going to get here today.
Hubby and I started our day with a bit of a "clear out" in the garage .. .. never a good thing.
I then worked on some orders I wanted to complete so hubby could take them to work with him tomorrow. Some aren't needed until the end of the month but it is nice to get them done and delivered. I told myself I wasn't allowed to make anything else until they were done.
So orders done I decided to try and combine two challenges .. .. The Friday Sketchers (where there was a lovely sketch this week) and Bee Crafty's Card Challenge where the theme this week is to work with pastels.
I was tempted not to do a Christmas Card .. .. but as I need a few hundred of them it seemed silly not to make another LOL!!!
Here is my creation:
(I re-took my photographs as the ones I took late Sunday were a bit dull .. .. ..
this morning the weather isn't that much better but at least the pictures are a bit brighter)
This used:
Image: Great Impressions "G289"
Sentiment: Great Impressions "B154"
Backing Papers: All Funky Hand CD "Dreams Come True"
Hobbycraft Punch: Small Snowflake
ProMarkers
Glamour Dust
Josy Rose: Nail Heads
Here is the sketch for following if you fancy playing along with Friday Sketchers. It does look a bit complicated to begin with but once you start it is quite simple really.
So the results of X-Factor tonight and a very late dinner. Need to go and get my veg on!!
Sorting that garage of rubbish made us very behind today .. .. with breakfast happening at a time most people would have been clearing up their dinner pots!! Shame on us!!
Hopefully then I will get chance for a blog hop and see what you have all been up to.
Love
