Card Chain Swap Reveal

 Morning and time for the card chain swap reveal- 27 cards were exchanged and my card went to Jo in the UK and I went with the sketch and white on white. Dies are from Spellbinders, John Next Door, Penny Black  and a craft mag freebie leaf, and I put a clear gem in the centre of the flower.

Nothing says Winter like Robins.

Morning and the least said about the date the better lol! I have two DT posts today and the first one is for the Winter/ATG challenge at Stamping Sensations with prizes from AALL&Create on offer.

Bring out the Gin

 Morning and my post is bring out the gin but since I got drunk on it at my 18th many moons ago I cant even stand the smell now-port is my preferred tipple-I made a card using a layout where you get two cards from two pieces of p, paper from CraftOClock   and stamp set from Visible Image- stamped, fussy cut and coloured with promarkers-pretty quick and simple. The gin bottle in the front is on 3D foam. I made another one with the same papers and stamps but that is a DT one for next month.

 Morning and after receiving the most amazing  birthday card off  Chrissy HERE I decided to make the same style for  FB friend who goes onlots of Nature walks complete with pics -but is suffering a health setback-mine was a  lot smaller and not as impressive but I was still delighted how it turned out.

Winter Birthday and Snowdrops

 Morning and my second post today is for the Winter Birthday challenge chosen by Christine and our GD is Pam  at Dragonfly Dreams which I have now rejoined. The papers are from CraftOClock the snowdrop image is from Sweet Dixie clear stamps coloured with promarkers and dies from Spellbinders. I stamped the image twice, cut out the flowers and added  with 3-D foam, after using the spotlight technique and adding part of the image with a Crafters Companion die, soft snow around the base of images-the sentiment is from Pink frog.
