shake it all about

Hiya

Sorry I've been absent all week!

Probably like you, I've been busy making cards, boxes, crackers etc.,

in fact it nearly sent me crackers!

Luckily I had a lovely lunch with a friend on Thursday, and a lace making class on Friday that helped keep me sane,

and today the lace group I belong to had it's xmas party too!

I can now show you some of my cards, as the recipients have received them,

so I won't spoil the surprise!

I was with some friends recently, and managed to borrow a stamp that I thought was very cute.

No idea of the manufacturer, but a big Polar Bear cuddling a little one,

sat on an iceberg, looking up at a star.

Hence I used blue ink, and made a 'shaker' frame with my oval framelits from Stampin' Up!

Embossed the background with the polka dot folder, great for creating a snowy scene.

Some chunky glitter from Stampin' Up! to 'shake' about.....

except I think I put in a bit too much!

The frame is cut from silver glimmer paper, ribbon adds a nice border.

Tonight my lovely man is cooking fillet steak for dinner,

and I'll probably have a nice glass of red with it.

How lucky am I ?!?!?!?!

Hope you are having a good weekend too
