Final Christmas Card from Moi

Hello my friends,
I have finally completed my Christmas card orders and done our family ones as well - in between having the flu and ending up with a persistent night time cough, I have achieved what I set out to do! Whew!

I am sick of the sight of bl##dy Christmas cards now but have two birthday orders to get done - one for 25th Dec and another for 13 Jan so no rest for the wicked eh?


First a sneak peak of this final one......love the embossing here....

The image is a stunning freebie from A Day For Daisies - do go along and have a look they are gorgeous images!

 And finally the card......

I just adore this image and think it may end getting used again next year - I have already decided that I am going to make one Christmas card per week so that I am better organised this time next year.  Yes you read that statement correctly but just remind me of it in the New Year pls!!

I coloured this image with my PMs and the DP is a Milton Freebie!

I am going to enter this into the following challenges:~

Little Claire's Family Christmas;
CES Traditional Christmas:
Creations by Gill Red and Green;
Dream Valley Christmas; and
Joanna Shen Its Beginning to Look a Lot like Christmas!

Thanks for visiting today my friends and happy crafting to you all!!

Tag Challenge for Cardmadfairy Digi Days

Hello fellow bloggers.....

Well I have been AWOL again but have a very valid reason this time - I have had a bout of flu - knocked me for six and I still don't feel 100% but gotta get up and get some Christmassy things done inside the house - like making cards etc....... haven't been out of the house since Saturday but not sure I am well enough to venture far today. Perhaps I will leave it til 2moro.

I have managed to get a tag made fro our fab challenge over at Cardmadfairy's Digi Days - this time we are sponsored by the fabulous A Day For Daisies - wow if you not seen their images you gotta go have a look.  Tammy very kindly gave the DT some images to play with and they are such fun to colour - very different but stunning.  The winner of this challenge will receive a $12 gift card (equates to 3 images) to spend on any images from their beautiful site.

Here is my tag - please be aware I had to keep it simple due to the fact that my brain and body refused to function properly this week but I am rather pleased with the result.

I coloured the stunning image with my Prisma pencils and added some white glitter for snow (not seen in this pic sorry).

Do go along to Cardmadfairy's Digi Days and see what my team buddies have created - wow you will be amazed.

I am going to enter this into the following challenge:~
