Glitter Me Silly

Hello all and Happy Holidays!  Okay, I’m maybe being a wee bit premature there but I am quite literally buzzing with excitement over the upcoming Christmas season.  I am busy preparing the house (been shampooing carpets all morning – glam or what?) and have started my shopping although I still have a huge hill to climb there!!

For our challenge I have cracked open and lavished some inky attention on my new Holiday Lights set as well as the Stylish Sentiments: Holidays set.  I just adore both of them – think they’re both going to feature heavily in this years cards!
I LOVE Pure Poppy and for Christmas there just is NO OTHER COLOUR!!  I have paired it this time with Hawaiian Shores and Raspberry Fizz – yum!
Hope to see you over on the blog so you can have a go at our challenge.
Big Hugs,

Well we had a great day today doing Halloweeny things – carving pumpkins etc and so to celebrate one of my favourite nights of the year here is a wee card made using some gorgeous WMS stamps (LOVE their Halloween stamps).

Have a spooky night tomorrow everyone – we’ll be out spooking the neighbours as usual and the kids will all end up with more sweets and candy than they know what to do with!!
Have fun!

Hello all, just here to let you know we have a new challenge starting today over on A Passion For Papertrey. The theme for this fortnight is Sensational Silhouettes.  Now don’t panic – you can interpret this challenge in many ways, think of the many different solid-shaped images in your PTI sets – any one of then could be described as a silhouette.  For my card, the silhouette is in the form of a die-cut aperture (yes, I know it’s stretching it a bit!!).  I am on a mission to get as many of my Christmas cards done as possible and have been itching to play with my new stamp sets from the September release!!

Hope you’re able to join in with the challenge  and share your creations with us over at the blog.

Hugs,

ETA:  The Make It Monday technique of on Nichole’s blog is about layering die-cuts and mats – hope this qualifies because I’ve just linked it up!!!
