Christmas Greetings

We took our grandson and his daddy!! lol; to the Panto yesterday (oh yes we did) great fun; we came out to falling snow sooooooo Christmasy. Unfortunately they had a long drive home and roads were bad but they arrived safely thank goodness.
Kitchen duties this morning to catch up have to ice Christmas cake too! I'm just a tad behind now but was worth it we have had a fantastic 4 days with our grandson even though he was poorly for some of the time.
Will post again after the holidays

MERRY CHRISTMAS to you all hope Santa brings all you desire

Scooby Doo Christmas Card



My Grandson is crazy about Scooby Doo and I just couldn't resist these stamps when I saw them way back in the summer - decided to make him a side step card which are popular at the moment so I could use all the images and his favourite colour is red, throw in a little glitter and scooby dooby doo here is the card.

I used Stampin' Up Card in Whisper White and Real Red, DSP Merry Moments; Stampin' write markers in Old Olive, Real Red and Really Rust; Dazzling Diamonds glitter.

I'm pleased with the result can't wait to see his face when I give it too him after we have seen his school play on Wednesday - have tissues at the ready!

Bye for now

Reindeer All in A Row

Hellooooooo
I know it has been ages since my last proper post - sorry!! I could tell you my life history as events have happened over the past few months - but I won't - just to say Life has been Topsy Turvy and recently my Mom ( who is 88 in a few weeks; but don't tell anyone she'll kill me!!) has been unwell so I have been living between 2 houses with no time to craft and play with my new Stampin' Up goodies from the new catalogue!!
Mom's on the mend (hopefully) so today I have been playing;
Here is a Christmas card using colours from the Stamp with Us challenge. My Mojo wasn't flowing so the card came about by accident really, while stamping out the colours used in the challenge with the first stamp to hand, which happened to be the reindeer from the stamp set Winter Post (I love this set) I noticed they looked really cute all in a row. So I added some Dazzling Diamonds glitter for snow and on their antlers also within the dots of the New Eyelet Border Punch - just couldn't stop playing with the glitter but I am pleased with the way my card has turned out - you have to have glitter at Christmas - don't you?
Hope you like my creation too.

I will be back with some more creations using the Fab new products from Stampin' Up! very soon :-()

Christmas Glitter



Here is my card for the Stamp with Us Challenge this weeks theme Christmas.





I Have used my 2 favourite Christmas Stamp Sets for this card, I use the flourish from Season of Joy all the time; not just for Christmas. I stamped image in Chocolate Chip to give a more subtle effect and coloured in the windows to give the image life. I then added glue where I wanted snow and sprinkled Stampin' Glitter ( I love this product). I seem to be into tearing at the moment so watch this space!! lol. Hope you like it.
