Hello again,

Well I’ve left my monthly planned Christmas card make until the last week of the month again… so I have two to share in the next few days. I have deviated slightly from my current use my vintage stash with this card and used some brighter colours and papers from Lily Bee Designs from a 6"pad I sneakily cut the stripe paper in two and covered the middle with the second patterned paper... and I've not been drinking my picture is at a very severe angle...hiccup

Here is my card:-


What I used:-
White 12.7cm x 17.8cm card blank
MFT pierced square die
MFT Merry Christmas die
Kraft paper
Lily Bee Design 6” pad Christmas Cheer
Scrap of metallic red card

Easter


Hello again,

Well hope you all had a lovely Easter and a breakaway from the norm. Apologies for being AWOL for much of the month, I’ve had a new massage therapist added to my treatment many months after being told I’m carrying 30+kilos of fluid, who has added new tasks to my days and weeks that I have had to adjust to, who knew that a massage could make you so tired for a few days afterwards, or perhaps that is just me.

Thank you to all the lovely ladies who Congratulated me on joining the Design Team over at Lil Patch of Crafty Friends blog, it was also my first scheduled blog post, never having figured out how to do so without the kind help from Denise.

Enough about all that and on to my card for my niece who lives in a different state and we can’t send Chocolate treats to her as they melt (she got gift vouchers for of all places Bunnings Hardware) and gift bag for Easter for my Mum which was filled with some good old Aussie Cadbury Chocolate eggs, I felt I was cheating a little with the gift bag very little colouring at all.

Here is my Nieces card:- made to look a bit like a corkboard, although the other 'pin' seems to have vanished it was in the bottom corner. Letters came as part of the paper pack

Here is the Easter Bag
