Christmas Robin

 Hello and thank you for visiting my blog today.

Today I am sharing 1 of the 10 cards I made to using some old snowglobe shaped cards which were purchased from Craftwork Cards many moons ago.

To make my card I paper pieced a Woodware stamp - Little Red Robin using some First Edition papers, the holly leaves and berries were coloured with alcohol markers.

The sentiment is from another Woodware stamp - Little Snowman. The circle edges were inked with Speckled Egg Distress Oxide Ink. The circle dies are from Memory Box.

I am entering my card at 52 Christmas Card Throwdown

Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 DT - using sketch 331

  Hello and welcome to / back to my blog. Today I am  sharing a DT card for Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2. This one is using sketch 331

Here is the sketch designed by Kathie

Due to the heat in the craft room when I made my DT cards for this month the Hobby House box was searched again for a set with an oval  topper and this pretty kit caught my eye which also had the matching cardstock in the pouch. The oval die for the mat is My Favourite Things and the bow die is a favourite from Stampin Up. The pearls are also from the Hobby House. 

Most of the stash is vintage but having been saving up for retirement for a few years it is now the time to use it all, if only it weren't so hot in the roof lol!

Thank you for visiting
