Good Morning Everyone,
This is my last week as GD for Creative Inspirations. Thank you for having me ladies.
This week the theme is a bingo board...
I followed the first row down for my card, Snowflakes, Pearls and Stamped Image.
The image is 'Winter Birds' from Stampendous, and is of course coloured with Promarkers.
The background papers are from DoCrafts. I used a Spellbinders edgeability die to create the scalloped edge.
The snowflake die is from Marianne Creatable and the pearls are from my stash.
Thanks for taking the time to visit my little blog today and for all your lovely comments.

A lovely day at GNPE Harrogate
Hello Everyone,
I've had a few requests to show you the things that I bought at the GNPE at Harrogate on Sunday. So here goes...
One or two paper pads from Lili of the Valley. I was going to buy a few stamps but I got chatting to Anne and completely forgot about them! The reels of ribbon were from Meiflower.
And then a couple of embossing folders and one or two rubber stamps. The Whimsey stamps were on offer at only £3.50 each - what a bargain!
And then...mmm...
I thought they would come in handy for those DT projects, when it's 'anything but a card'....but I think they will still be in the cupboard this time next year!!
While I was wandering around the stalls ,I bumped into the lovely Mel from Create and Craft fame, and had a natter - What a lovely lady!
Right, I have to go out for a run now! and then Parents Evening at school later so I'll find out if my little munchkins behave themselves or not!! lol
Thanks for taking the time to visit and I'll try and catch up with you all later.
