Morning Folks!
3 posts in 3 days....
I know, you can't believe it ....and nor can I - LOL!!!
Today's post is very special because I have been invited to be a guest designer over at House Mouse and Friends Monday Challenge for a second time - thrilled to bits!!
This fortnight the challenge is
ANYTHING BUT A CARD
I found these cute little kraft bags in Hobbycraft while I was up in York and inspiration struck - Christmas gift bags. They are a really nice size, about 14cm across so very much like doing a card!! The papers also fell into my basket in Hobbycraft, they are Country Companions Winter Wishes. I liked them because some designs you could use all year round.
The stamp is from a Joanna Sheen set called Opening Presents, coloured with promarkers.
Here's a closer look at that little face!! The furry trim on the hat isn't really pink IRL but the camera and I were struggling with rubbish winter lighting - please come back summer, I miss you already!!
Thanks for visiting today and please join us over at House Mouse and Friends Monday Challenge, there is some fantastic inspiration from the rest of the team and some lovely prizes on offer!!
