Hi there! Just thought I would drop in a show you what I have been up to the last few days. I have been visiting everyone but feeling just a bit lazy and so just couldn't be bothered to post, I'm very naughty so tonight is my catchup.This cute little box pouch is going to my teenage next door neighbour and I used the tutorial from here after seeing over at one of my favourite blogs Hey Bubbles.
The weekend was full of fun times with friends going to a good friends yearly Christmas party followed on Sunday by a christening.
It was great to catch up with friends and it makes me release how lucky I am to have special people in my life, people I can depend on. So I was on a bit of a card making frenzy on Saturday night so I could take a card to go along with the christening gift.
Within the same family two people share a birthday one day apart so a couple of cards for birthdays were needed too.
That night was a late one for me but it was great to get back into a bit of stamping.
For this card I used the sketch from over at Everything but the Kitchen Sink and to challenge myself again I chose the colours and a snowflake stamp from the challenge over at Embellish Magazine.
Anyway I should go and do something Christmassy like wrap or make cards (yes I know I haven't finished making Christmas cards) I would love to get them out to people if I can. Take care and I should be back soon but if not have a wonderful Christmas with family and friends. Thank you for stopping by and visiting .Smiles Catherine xoxChallenge CardStamps: SU Snow Swirled, SU Great Friend, SU Eastern BloomsCardstock: SU Kraft, SU Tempting Turquoise, SU Yoyo Yellow, SU Chocolate ChipInk: SU Chocolate Chip, SU Whisper WhiteAccessories: Kaiser Pearls, Kaiser Rhinestones, Glitter, Sticky Strip, Kaiser Apron Lace Punch, Martha Stewart Butterfly Punch, SU Whisper White RibbonEthanStamps: SU Sincere SalutationsCardstock: SU Basic Black, SU Real Red, DP Creative ImaginationsInk: SU Basic BlackAccessories: MM Felt Alphabets, Black BradsChristeningStamps: None UsedCardstock: SU Very Vanilla, SU So Saffron, DP Grant Archival, DCWVInk: None UsedAccessories: MM Buttons, SU Certainly Celery Ribbon
I made for card for a little girl who will be turning 2 on the weekend using this weeks Mojo Sketch. It has been a while since I have joined in a sketch challenge so I feel a bit rusty and although I really enjoyed working on this card, I found the colours also were difficult for me. I chose the bright colours because the birthday girl loves the Wiggles and the DP was bright and colourful like them. Thank you for stopping by and I hope to see you again soon.
