Well good morning to you! Not sure what the weather's like where you are, but it seems to be turning to the south here, brrrrr. I wish the weather would make it's mind up!
Righto, back to the task at hand. Did you know that there are only 34 sleeps until Christmas? Woohoo! I love Christmas :) Oops, distracted again!
Now, I have had a play this week with a lovely Christmas range from our Centre Stage artist, Heidi Swapp, called Believe. It's just gorgeous.
I made a few very simple cards, with a little bit of layering and sewing (of course!). One of the papers comes with cute little 3x4" cards printed on it, just perfect for an instant Chrissy card...
I'm just loving that chalkboard look that's all the rage at the moment :)
Continuing on the card theme, I also had a play with Heidi's Sugar-Chic range.
I love love LOVE this range! Very 'me' colours. So pretty and girly, perfect for cards, or layouts, or off the page, or ANYTHING! Gee, can you tell I like this one?! Ha ha ha!
I made two Centre Step cards (this is one of my all time favourite card styles)...
...and a more simple and straight forward 6x6" card, using some hand cut pennant flags, more sewing, and the cute new Kaiser dymo alphas...
So as you can see, this week it's been all about the card making! Don't forget to enter the competitions for Centre Stage, and this month's challenges. Prizes, ladies, prizes!
