Lovely day!

Woohoo! had a lovely day making cards today, it's so nice not to have to go to work, got to go back tomorrow boo! Got over my scare on Boxing Day when little Daisy had a near miss with a car and I had to find the emergency vet, she is ok though thank you for emergency vets.... she has a sore hip and pelvis a few claws missing the rest are blunt or shredded, and a few cuts to her pads. A very lucky girl me thinks, although Lilly is very jealous and has stolen the basket I put in the front room for her to sit in, and keeps taking the blanket out the cat carrier which Daisy also sleeps in.
Anyway enough of my trauma and the cats! In the mood for making cards today, so many ideas but not enough time to make them all today. This card was from a challenge a short while back, I am sorry I can not remember who's it was. The Penny black bear was a image stamped for me by a friend. I used copics to colour the paper is Bo Bunny, various punches for the message and flower. One of my favorite stamps, I do love Magenta, this is from one of the cling sets. I chalked the background and used versamark. The flowers I coloured with Starlight pens watered down, but it does not show very well in this picture sorry!

Merry Christmas xx

Merry Christmas everybody,I hope you all have a lovely day.
A very big thankyou to all of you lovely people who visit my blog and the lovely comments that are left. It really brightens my day!


I finally plucked up the courage to decorate my tree last night, I was very wary due to Little Lilly and Daisy, I thought they might dismantle it. They did try while I was putting it up but since then they have left it alone. Hurrah....... Hope I have not spoken too soon.

Penny Black Challenge. Week 78 Christmas for the girls

Oh what a cheat I am, I was just about to add this card to my blog when I saw this really fits this weeks Penny Black challenge. I think blog land has been a bit quiet lately, I guess we are all busy making our Christmas cards. Well that's my excuse anyway!

Here I have used Penny black stamp -xmas head to toe (paper pieced), foreverfiends papers, punches from stamping up, nestabilities frame and handmade Flowers with punches. I embossed with the cuttlebug snowflake folder and finished with stickles.
