Morning all.....it is a rainy dismal day here. Thinking of my son and all the other year 11's on their last day of school for the year. They are meant to be heading south to a place called Etty Bay... click here for a picture on a sunny day. They are a bunch of teenagers, I am sure they will have fun.
Well I have moved away from the Christmas card theme at the moment although still have Christmas in mind. I have decided to make my MIL a card folder with some cards in as part of her Christmas present this year. So here is card number one. I received this lovely Gladdy Image in a swap....pretty sure it was from Cathy.
I started with a white gloss card....then some Stampin Up design papers I won a little while ago. Sorry don't know the name of the set. I coloured the image with my blender pen and Stampin Up inkspots so that I could match the colours of the paper and card. Cut out the image with my Spellbinders and added a gold sticker border.
The sun is trying to shine through....so maybe not that bad at the beach after all.
Before I go I have to let you know that I have come to the decision that I won't be in much for December. Mojo seems to be waining, kids starting school holidays until end of January next year. We have travel plans and best of all I will be catching up with my penpal of cough cough 30 plus years. So a busy time. I will post a couple more cards early next week but no promises after that I am sorry. However, I will schedule my Design Team cards.
So the countdown is on....4 more days you will see me online until January. :-)
So wishing you all a very Merry Christmas....and a wonderful New Year.
Thanks for all your lovely comments throughout the year and I so have loved coming in every day to see what everyone has created. I shall return. :-)
