Started your Christmas shopping yet?!!

............Well I have just the tag for your Christmas wrapping up!!

Hi all

I'm sure I must be getting on your nerves now with my Christmas in March routine lol

but better to start early than get caught out  - that's my motto

and that's exactly why I wanted to join a lovely Christmas design team like

Winter Wonderland

We have a new challenge starting today and our theme is 

Animals or Birds

I made this cute little tag with  an image from our lovely sponsor this week

he's called Hollie Christmas Penguin available HERE

Our sponsor this week is the lovely

Kitty Bee Designs

who are offering one of their cute digis to this weeks winner

Here's what I did

Good morning all

It's the lovely Lorraine's turn to host over at 

Fab'n'Funky Challenges 

and she has chosen the theme 

Flower Delights

(use flowers)

I decided to go with a really CAS look

 using the dies stamps and sentiments that came with the new Crafters Inspiration at 

Crafters Companion - available here

I decided to keep it really simple - but that didn't mean quick - ooooh no! 

I can't believe how long it took me to make this card, the stamps and dies were really easy to use - but my head kept on falling out of gear and I just couldn't decide what to do with it!!

We are sponsored by the fabulous Di's digi downloads this week

who are offering a fab prize of $12 to spend in store 

So after much messing about 

this is what I did....

Flowers were shaped with the tonic flower set

Coloured with Spectrum aqua markers 

             Colours -Scarlet, crimson and Burgundy and Moss and Bud green

Frame made with cream card and tattered lace ovals

Tag dies - MFT - tag and stitched tag dies
