Hello Everyone,
It's my first Christmas card of the year, as ever all the promises to get ahead with them and in reality....mmm! To be honest I've had a stinking cold for almost 4 weeks now so haven't really felt like crafting or spending time on the computer. I'm starting to feel a little better now so thought I'd better get cracking and this one was perfect for today as we have had a little bit of snow and it is very chilly!
I've used an image from Di's Digi Stamps today, this is Chilly Penguins.
I've coloured them with promarkers and the background papers are from Lili of the Valley. I've added a Marianne Designs snowflake die and a sentiment stamp from Lili of the Valley. The gorgeous ribbon is from The Ribbon Girl.
I'd like to enter the following challenges:-
Di's Digi Designs - Snow Much Fun
Fab n Funky - Christmas
Crafty Hazelnuts - Anything Christmas
Cute Card Thursday - Critters
ABC Christmas Challenge - A for Anything Christmas

Christmas bags
Hello Everyone,
I was asked to make a few (about 30!) of these bags for this years Christmas fair at school so I thought I'd better make a start.
I found some old art sheets from Lili of the Valley with some gorgeous James the Bear images on. I fussy cut the images and added a bit of glossy accents to the stars. I used one of the recent paper pads from LOTV - Vintage Christmas which is still available.
