with a kirsch cherry and a little umbrella - you'll need one after this cute, kitsch Christmas card. I think I must have had a couple while making the card - this wasn't want I'd planned but I went with it. Managed to get 2 doilies on it as well   ; ) toppers from Gecko Galz - Christmas Visions backing paper from Creata Christmas range pink mirror card from Creata random sentiment pastel green promarker stick on  gems   entering into:  gecko galz - christmas joy

leads to another, is something which happens to me a lot! I get distracted and never get to do what I was intending to. Today was slightly different - I was intending to do a card, using an image I tangled, from a new purchase of Peerless Designs "Tangletastic 1" crafting cd: then I had an idea, which featured this photo frame: three hours, much colouring in, many butterflies and gems later, it had morphed into this:  I was going for less is more, but once I started I couldn't stop, plus it was a big frame (that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it!) I do love how it turned out and am quite proud of myself as this is something I've never done before. entering into: nutcrafters - anything but a card

We don't get many callers on the night, but it still doesn't stop me doing some goody bags, this year I decided to do a digi image and colour in..... which was a good idea, pity I had to do 25. And we've still got half left...
