3 More Sleeps!

The Countdown begins....


and I'm kicking off with warmth and cheer,
the stamp set bcame a favourite....odd as it's only sentiments


the Cable Knit embossing folder is a MUST-HAVE


and I picked up some pops of colour with the enamel shapes


see if you can find them....


and here is a teeny tiny TIP!
I used the ballon punch for the Bauble!







everyone loves a bit of tartan don't they?

Seasons Greetings

Celebrate at the Snippets Playground

Morning!
Dull and grey again here,
so lets hop over to the Snippets Playground!

There's going to be lots of fun going on, and super prizes,
so do join in if you can!

I could have entered a zillion posts, but we can only link one,
so I decided to pick a card I made with a prize I was lucky to win
earlier this year, and hadn't used before now!

It's going to be a special celebration at the Playground,
as 'Miss' Di has been doing it for 5 years......she is such a star!


The prize was two fab dies, one with the elephant,
and the other was the words.


We celebrated a new addition to the Family....


lots of snippets used.......the papers, glitter card, and other card bits,
and a snippet of twine.

We had a team challenge to make an Initial the focal point of a card.....

Dad card

Thoughtful Branches was out on the desk.....
I've heard men like simple, so that's how I kept it!


The leaves were stamped first/second/third generation,
on top of the trunk, grass added,
then stamped and die cut cute bird.

Have a good week
