Make it sentimental at moving Along with the Times

Hello again blog friends

Its Thursday so that means another brand new challenge at MAWTT.   Yesterday was the end of our birthday challenge,  we had so many fabulous entries and the prize winners have all been drawn if you entered our challenge have a look at the blog - you could be one of the lucky ones!

Our hostess this week is the lovely Debs and she has chosen the theme

Make it Sentimental

to put it simply - make the sentiment the main focus of your card
(no images please!)


There seems to have been an influx of Christmas cards this last week or two - or is it just  the blogs I visit lol.  I'm definitely not an early Christmas card person but  if you can't beat 'em join 'em!!

I had bought this stamp last year from Clarity stamps but never got around to using it - it seemed like a good opportunity to use it and perhaps jump on the bandwagon for Christmas designs.

This is what I did

Stamp - Let it snow by Clarity Stamps
Inked with - memento light blue
Blue and white card and gems from my stash
Ribbon - carnmeal cottage
Large snowflakes - Spellbinders build a snowflake dies
Small snowflakes - Martha Stewart punch
Gems in sticks - salvaged from a wedding favour I was given

I'm entering these challenges with this card

Make it Monday - Anything goes
Totally stampalicious - Bows and Ribbons
The squirrell and the fox - Christmas in July
Ladybird crafts Ink - Christmas in July 

Hope you have a great day

Hugs
