Birthday Nell

Morning Folks!
Less than a week to go ....
No Christmas card to share with you today but I do want to let you know that the fabulous Mega Christmas Challenge is continuing over at Passion for Promarkers. Our theme is 

ADD A SENTIMENT

so nice and easy and suitable for any occasion - so you don't have to make a Crimbo card if you don't want to!

There are lots of fabulous prizes on offer (wish I could enter myself !!) you can check out all the details over on the main blog post here. The rest of the team 2 girlies have some fabulous cards to show you this week. The challenge is open until 2nd January so you've got plenty of time to grab your promarkers, flex markers, tria markers, metallic or aqua markers and join us!

Here's my card, I needed a break from snowy cards! I've used a super cute digi from Digistamp Boutique (one of our sponsors) called Birthday Nell. Papers are from Crafters Companion and magazine freebies.


Here's a closer look. The all important sentiment is a rub on from an old Letraset pack


Thanks for looking and have a great day, whatever you're doing!

I'd also like to enter the following challenges:

Red corrugated card from The Paper Mill, 
Sparkly white paper cut with Fiskars edge punch,

A Smiley Snowman

Morning Folks!
I can't believe that it's the first of December already, can you?
Still good news, that means that it's time to rip open the first door of the advent calendar and scoff the first chocolate AND that the new challenge over at  SPARKLES CHRISTMAS CHALLENGE is just starting. The theme for our last challenge of 2017 is nice and easy

SNOWMAN OR SNOWMEN 
(OR EVEN SNOWLADIES IF YOU LIKE!!)

Here's my card using a new stamp from Woodware, I kept this quite simple and flat so that it's easier and cheaper to post!!


I love this smiling face!
Of course I had to add some glossy accents and a good sprinkle of glamour dust - it really wouldn't be Christmas without glitter!
