SUNDAY SNIPPETS

Hi Everyone

Wow!!!  What a lovely Sunday!!

This would do me for Summer.  It doesn't need to be any warmer than this for me .. .. this would be perfect from now until the end of October!  What says you?

Lots of snippets used up this week and to make up for not taking part last Sunday (because we were at the Wedding Fayre) I have made two Christmas cards instead of one.  My Christmas card box is starting to look quite impressive for saying it is only early March!

So here are my makes:










As always on a Sunday I do not list my ingredients but if you have any questions then please ask and I will try my best to answer (no asking for the winning lottery numbers though .. .. I really can't help there).

So all of my makes are making their way to Pixie's Crafty Workshop .. .. Week 115.

and I am also entering the first card into Mrs A's Butterfly Challenge .. .. Week 2.  There was a little recipe going on there and Mrs A wanted to see "at the very least" ..one butterfly, one bow and one button.  

.. .. and that is me for today.

Off to go and finish the evening meal off now and then tonight I have promised myself a lovely stroll around blogland to see what everyone has been up to.

Enjoy your evening.

Love

    They are all beautiful Jules. Love the cute little butterfly on your first and I love hedgehogs so the second is a definite winner. A very stylish tree on your third.
    You are putting me to shame. I promised myself I would get well ahead with xmas cards this year and I have yet to make one!!!

    Once again, I've been away too long and have summarily had my head blown off, again!! Your work, Jules, is just picture perfect, time and time after time! And each one delights as much as the one before it and after it!

    I'm so happy that you are having gorgeous weather! Crossing my fingers that it lasts and last!! Hugs, Darnell

    Three wonderful cards. i love the entry for Mrs A's challenge. That is a lovely design and especially love your little heart on the tag. What a fab idea!

    The Christmas cards are so pretty. The second one is adorable and the third is stunning. Such wonderful colours and love that bow!

    Now how did I manage being first to comment? Hmm? Well, I totally agree with you on the weather staying just as it has been for our wkend round this area. Warm, sunny, not hot. Not white stuff either. All 3 of your cards are so lovely. Each blog I've enjoyed tonight, has reminded me of a stamp (NBUS) that I need to hunt up (Your PB Hedgie). I am so loving the dp on #1, and oh yes, found the sweet heart too.Of course Hedgie grabbed me right away when I saw him, but loving the DP you have behind him too, along with the tiny white heart shape hiding in the corner. #3, well that just looks so frosty, and loved the snowflakes, silver cord & the so-even stitching! Had to recheck the tree container to spot the silver-y heart. Gosh, 3 cards in one post. I'm impressed (ain't gonna happen at my house!). TFS & Hugs too.
