Sorry I’m posting this up a few days late but it’s been a busy old week this week and  haven’t had one moment to myself!!  Our current challenge over at the Passion for Papertrey blog is to incorporate geometric shapes into your design.  I went for triangles and used the banner builder set for a christmassey card with lots of glitter!!

I have to say I am already feeling SOOO festive – have even started my christmas shopping!  I also started some little projects today for my annual contribution to the school fair – will share them in a few weeks when I’ve got them finished – loads of di-cutting, sewing and baking to do in the meantime!!!
Hope you can pop along this week and have a go at the challenge and have yourself a merry little weekend.

Today marks a new challenge over on the A Passion For Papertrey challenge blog and this time it’s a tag challenge.  We want to see a tag of some kind on your creation and of course, as always, there must be PTI in there somewhere too!!
As I am now in proper panic mode in the run up to the BIG day – virtually every card that I create from now until December 24th (yes, I am NEVER completely in control) will be a Christmas card of some description.  This year I am not putting myself under pressure to make the usual 150 plus that I do every year.  I’m not a fan of the mass production approach as I get bored too easily so it’s rare I make the same card twice.  With that in mind I have set myself a target of 50 cards, all different for those people that I know will appreciate them.  For those distant relatives and friends of the family that I don’t really “know” but nevertheless exchange cards with every year, there will be a card, just not a special hand-crafted one!  I know that’s a bit naughty but I would rather put that time into making something for my dearest friends and family members who will feel that little bit more special knowing not every one got one!
