Morning sweet peeps and hope you are OK today xxx
I’m so sorry but the obsessions with the kraft stuff is still in evidence - I can’t seem to stop using it!!! It will stop one of these days and I will go back to the pink and girly stuff I’m sure, but I am enjoying using something a bit different at the mo.
Anyhoos it’s time to nip across to the The Ribbon Girl Blog for the last challenge of 2012 and of course we have a seasonal theme this month which is
Ho Ho Ho (or A Christmas Card)
There’s a £20 Gift Voucher (twenty pounds Sterling) up for grabs from the fabulous Ribbon Girl PLUS
a stamp of the winners choice from Lili of the Valley :)
So …..
... this is what I did.
Like I said, the kraft card is still in favour and it’s another really easy peasy card to make for Christmas.
The bauble is a Memory Box die and I just added a couple of inked up Cheery Lynn Francesca Border strips and some pretties from The Ribbon Girl.
Here, have a look in close up ……
And these are the proddies I used ….
13mm Rusty Bells, 15mm Brown Tea Towel Stripe No 6,
Medium Red Berries, Ivory Beaded Berries
It took not time at all to put it together really.
In fact, I may make a few of these to put in my card box. I have a few in there at the mo but nowhere near as many as I actually need.
So that’s me card all done.
I’m typing this on Saturday afternoon cos I know I won’t have time tomorrow as the horrors are in residence. So I don’t know who has won IACGMOOH, but I do know that it ain’t Dishy Dave, cry cry :(
Still, a Youtube clip is for life and not for one series, drool drool!!!
Now all we have to do is get through Strictly and the X factor!!
I am not being horrible (well I am a bit I suppose) but I cannot bear Christopher Maloney. The very sight of him on the telly makes me knuckles go white. His little Nanna is so sweet but he seems to behave like a spoilt brat and I would love to give him a slap or two. He hasn’t got a reputation as a diva for nothing and if there is one thing I cannot stand it is a diva. Get over yourself mate would be my advise. He tries to come across as humble but I think it’s a bit of an act. He can sing to be fair but the judges are right – he sounds a bit dated sometimes.
I like listening to James but not always watching him (no doubt the wouldn't like doing either re me lol ). He has one hell of a talent though and he has soul coming out of his ears . I even downloaded SOS last week cos it was amazing.
Here - have a butchers if you missed it ….
I think the final will be between him and Jahmene
This is beautiful I love the bauble and how you have decorated it is gorgeous. Have a good day. Caroline xxx

This is stunning Dawny. I love the design and wonderful colours.
ReplyDeleteI have to say I TOTALLY agree with you regarding Christopher Maloney, I just don't get why he is so popular and who would buy his records I wonder. I suppose I can't complain that he is still in the competition as I never vote myself though.
I hope you have a good Sunday
Hugs Sue
