A little bit of crafting…

Hi All

Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and are looking forward to the New Year. I am already thinking about my resolutions…haven’t done too badly with some of them this year…will ponder on those in another post though. I did set a couple of crafty resolutions though, one is to use my crafty stash up and the other is to decorate the insides of my cards! I will try my hardest in the New Year!

In the meantime, I have used some of my new stash on my card today and have managed to squeeze in a few challenges! My bessie mate Becky bought me this super cute stamp for Christmas and I have sat and coloured many of her in this afternoon! I have also raided my craft box for some old papers, gems and flowers for the finishing touches. I was pleased with the result…what do you think?

I would like to enter this card into a number of challenges today. Firstly, to the Winter Wonderland challenge this week which is to make a ‘Thank You’ card and to follow a recipe…include one ribbon, three papers, three flowers and one image. Secondly, I’d like to enter it into the I Love ProMarkers challenge which is ‘Anything Goes’ and I have used blush, cornflower, powder blue, pastel yellow and tan ProMarkers to colour in this little cutie. Thirdly, I’d like to enter it into the Papertake Weekly challenge this week which is this fab sketch…another one I will definitely use again! And finally, I’d like to enter it into the Allsorts challenge which is to use the colours ‘blue and brown’. Hope you like my first post-Christmas card!

I have also stamped a few other images tonight and cut out some new House Mouse decoupage that I also received from Santa! Hopefully I will make these into cards tomorrow!

Hope you are all well and have a lovely New Year!

Hugs
