Hi all, I am so thrilled to have found that I won a challenge and was also chosen as top 3 in another, the badges are at the top of my sidebar, I would like to thank both The Sister Act Card Challenge and Crafty Catz for honouring me with these wins.

I would also like to thank everyone for their congratulations and for the awesome comments that I have received on my previous posts, I am very grateful.

I am hoping to decorate one of my 4 Christmas cakes today, I am toying with the idea of making another one.......just in case, lol.

My son and his girlfriend have gone to London for the day, they are going ice skating and a few other trips, my mum will be staying over the weekend so Jess will have some company while I do my cake.

Anyway onto my card for today which features one of the lovely images from TIDDLY INKS, I have coloured her with Graph It Markers, I cut the image and blue circle out with my EK Success circle cutter, the papers are a mixture of Bearly Mine Designs and LOTV, all have been mounted onto black cardstock.

I also added some punched snowflakes, lace, stamped sentiment and Viva Decor Creme Pearl Liquid.

FOXY LADY IN RED

I have been having a fish around in my stamps again and found this little lady that I bought from Funky Kits many moons ago but never used, I thought that i would ink her up and make a Christmas card.

I coloured Foxy Lady with Graph It Markers I used quite a bit of Papermania Fine glitter all around the image to give the effect of falling snow.

The papers are Bearly Mine Designs and have been mounted onto black cardstock, I did the same with the image but also used silver mirri card I then I punched some snowflakes in the same silver mirri card.

I added some wide white organza ribbon topped with red ribbon then added a couple of white bows.

I have received so many wonderful comments on my previous posts and I now know that Blogger is upsetting a lot of people at the moment, thank you to those who left me a note on the comment saga, I believe that although I am using the Pop Up commenting box if you click on publish after the comment has been left it still publishes.  I appreciate the time that is taken when visiting to leave a comment and I am very grateful for your continued support and encouragement.

I will see you later.

CHRISTMAS TIME

Hi all, I have a card that I would like to share with you and enter into some challenges.

I have been doing some commenting and noticed that quite a few have changed the commenting mode and turned on word verification, I haven't been on blogger until today so not aware of the problems, I do know that Blogger is on a go slow....again......also the pictures on some blogs are not showing up, I have been busy making yet another Christmas cake (my 4th) and finishing off my cards for the family, I am continuing with commenting after posting this card, I do hope that Blogger is not going to go rogue again I am still recovering from the last bout of problems.

Anyway onto my card, I have made a Christmas one but not in the traditional colours I have gone for pink and brown my all time favourite colour combo.  The papers are from Bearly Mine Designs who are unfortunately closing down, I have used a newer image from Sheri Baldy  this one is called Blakely Flower Hat, I have mounted both the papers and image onto gold mirri card, I added a triple pink organza bow, doily, pink flower pearls, pink and brown Poinsettia's, stamped sentiment and punched gold snowflakes, the image I coloured with Graph It Markers and Copics.

I would like to enter my card into the following challenges:
