snowkissed

Good morning  Girls

It's my turn to host the Artbymiran blog today so I do hope you like my little bit of inspiration.
I love the traditional reds and greens for Christmas but thought I'd play around a wee bit with some non traditional colours.  Plus I've had these papers from many Christmases ago, so they are getting used this year by hook or by crook.

 papers - First Edition
Sentiment - Whimsy Stamps

So now that I've shown you me card I've a question for you.  Who has stared their Christmas shopping? I've not a lot of people to buy for but haven't even thought about it yet.  Best get my thinking cap on and make a start soon or I'll be buying in the Boxing Day sales lol
Happy Crafting

Hi girls

Today's card is showcasing one of the new digi's for February from Whimsy Stamps.

These little raggedy dolls are by Stamp Art Design and can I just say I absolutely love them.

Oh and the sentiment is by the same artist although I loaded it into my graphics programe and added the circles around it.

I've used them for  a valentine's card but I'm sure they'd be quite at home for a kiddywinks birthday card too

Cute as little buttons aren't they?

other ingredients

papers - Polka Doodles

flourish - Cheery Lynne Designs

cricut and copics

I'll need to have a crafty afternoon  as I'm way behind with my DT cards.  Mr Mojo has not been a good by this past few days.  I've had this image coloured up for almost a week, love it, but couldn't find the inspiration to put it onto a card. I think I'll need to send Mr Mojo off to the norty step if he don't buck up his ideas!

Wish me luck
