It's still raining......

Thankfully we had decent weather last week when on our holidays with the caravan. Here's a picture of my boys enjoying the North Sea

Yep another card comes crawling along!!

I feel like I hardly ever have time to craft these days - perhaps less time in blogland and on Facebook might afford me a few more hours lol! I might have a wee break so if you don't see me commenting on your blogs for a week or so you will know that's what I am doing. Anyway, I coloured this beauty up over a week ago. She is from Saturated Canary, I am totally in awe of Krista's talent.

I used the sketch from Sketch and Stash #82 but am too late to enter so am entering into the following challenges

Make it Monday - always Anything Goes

Simon Says Stamp and Show - anything goes

Hope to be back soon with another card, thanks for visiting. I appreciate all your comments

A little bit of Clarity!

Here is the card I made with my brayering attmepts the other week. The stamps are Clarity Stamps Split Tree. This is really my first Christmas card, think I may use this idea for some more but I need lots of practice as the mistakes are jumping out at me

The snowflake is made using Marianne dies and I have covered them with Tinsel embossing powder so they are nice and sparkly but it doesn't show up so well in the photo.  The sentiment is Stampin' Up!
I am entering this card into the following challenges
Midnight Madness - sketch #126
Make It Monday - anything goes
Ooh La La Creations  - Let it Snow
Christmas Inspirations - Die Cuts
Crafting When We Can - Christmas
