Colouring on Kraft Card

Hi Peeps!
Thought I would have a try at colouring on Kraft card, as you can see need lots more practice but was quite pleased with the result will definitely give it another shot.
Lots of sparkle and bling on this card, slowly getting into the christmas spirit and the christmas card pile is growing slowly! Yay!
Well , off to look around for some sketches for my other cards but doubt i will get a chance to make any today - house looks like a bomb has gone off!!
I HATE HOUSEWORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Have a great day whatever you may be doing!

If in Doubt.........

....Get your Elzybells out!!!
Well this motto applies probably only to me as I do own most of these stamps and the majority of the time whether it be a sentiment or image you will normally see something from Elzybells on my cards!!
These gorgeous little robins are never too far away and i think they are so damn cute!
There was a very unusual sketch over at Secret Crafter this Saturday and I thought this was a little challenge that needed to be solved, I was originally going to use my Noel Magnolia stamp for this and then light bulb moment thought "Nah" gonna use my little dicky birds!
Lots of glamour dust on this one and it truly sparkles but you will have to take my word for it i am afraid.
Also lots and lots of snowflakes to finish it off i felt it needed a little something extra,
Well hope you like if you do leave me a comment and i will come and visit you!

Pixie and Pookie!

Hullo, Hullo,
Yet another crimbo card from me again, I think i should best stick to these then hopefully I will have some done in time for the big day!!
Just can't seem to get into Christmas mode at all, I need to be injected with some Christmas spirit to get me in the mood!!
This is an old Stampendous stamp but i just love his googly eyes to me it seems as though he has had a "sherbert or two" I can just imagine him leaving a wiggly trail trying to deliver his pressies having a little night cap at every stop! hee hee
Kraft card used again of course!! It would be rude not to!
I have also used a fab Martha Stewart all around the page punch Deco Flowers I have lots of these type punches and absolutely love them so I now must use the buggers!!
No good keep oohing and ahhing and letting them gather dust they want to come out and play!
Well let me tell you this little fella has got two more presents than i have got i haven't even started! HELP!
I will be entering my card into
lothian crafts - christmas
totally gorguss - christmas traditions

Another Tilda!

Good Morning!!!
How are you today ! Have you woken up with va va voom like me!! (normally fades) but at the
moment I am feeling very positive!
We have recently got 6 chickens so I am normally up to feed them and tell them how special they are as they lay me scrum diddly-umptious eggs, I have got over the fact now that when they lay me some eggs i do not actually have to eat them all there and then just cos they are fresh! lolx
Another long gap between cards I am afraid, i am not getting any time to do much crafting as my mum is still not right bless her but hopefully - everything crossed this may be her time as the doctors and nurses etc seem to have stepped up a notch this week.
Well todays card is another Tilda , I don't use them for months and then 2 come along side by side, I really do love this one it is so sweet!!
You can't see very well the texture of the snowball but i have used some snowy stuff and it looks fab, I kept playing around with this card trying to add more but i struggled i think it's because i feel guilty playing in my room at the moment and just want to get the job done and get out!

I will be entering my card into the following challenges
cupcake craft - textalicious
crafters companion - let it snow
crafty calendar - winter wardrobe
abc challenge - winter sports
