Christmas Cards






Here is a card I made after I looked at Kristina Kwerner's website. Of course I was days late to do the challenge but it really inspired me to do something! Its using the Season of Joy stamp set - not just for Christmas hey! The colours were pumpkin pie, rose red (I think), sage shadow and whisper white.
And here is another creation using the instructions from Makeesha Byl's web site! Thanks Keesh. It is a CD pouch and we will be making one of these at my Christmas workshop on Tuesday 18th November at 730pm. Contact me for the details! We will be making some other projects too.

Thursday night (20th November @ 730pm) is the Christmas Card workshop which will be focussing on making easily replicable cards that you can glam up if you would like to!


Finally, Saturday will be the card organizer that I am going to finish off and show you soon, so check back for a sneak peak! Cheers, Helen xx

Anyone Up for A Challenge




Hi everyone


I'm planning on doing something that a lot of bloggers are doing! A colour challenge!! So once a fortnight I will offer a challenge to anyone who wants to play along...If you email me a photo of your card or layout I will post them on here and we can see what people can do!

Check out the photo of the colours opposite! This is from a new shower curtain package...Nice colours and they got me inspired. I will post my creation soon. The colours are tempting turquoise, soft sky, river rock, certainly celery and very vanilla. You can use any similar colours of course.

Crazy Christmas Chaos

Yes, I know I am very naughty. Life is just so busy right now and with Christmas looming it will only get much worse! So I am having all my Christmas craft sessions next week! I will probably do one more too when the new minicatalogue comes out too.
