IT IS CHRISTMAS IN THE HEART

Hi Everyone

I hope you have had a good Thursday .. .. it has been another day that has flown by in the blink of an eye here in the old House of Hearts!

Wedding work all day today .. . but I had to have a little treat this evening and play with the new Pink Petticoat download that I spotted this morning!!

How cute is this backing paper?!?!?  I love the little soldiers.




This used:

Backing Paper and Sentiment "Nordic Christmas Duo"  (the little dotted paper is a Pink Petticoat Snippet from my overflowing collection of bits I can't throw away).
Nestabilities:  Classic Circle and Scalloped Circle
Distress Ink:  Old Paper
My Trusty Sewing Machine
Dimension Pads
Ribbons, cord and charm from my stash box

and that is it!

Time now to have a lovely soak in a hot bubbly bath .. .. though I am not sure how long it will last.  Earlier this evening I stupidly offered to give lifts to my lovely hubby and his pal "if needed" at the end of their evening out. What's the betting as soon as my shoulders submerge under the water the phone rings and they are ready for being picked up LOL!!!

Catch you tomorrow folks!!

Love
