How is your week going? It was so wet yesterday but I did get out for coffee with a friend. Today I have a quiet day to finish things off and pack. Tomorrow we are going to London for a Bootleg Beatles concert at the Royal Albert Hall. It is part of In the End tour and will feature music from the Let It Be and Abbey Road albums. I am super excited about this trip.
The new challenge starts today on the A Bit More Time to Craft Challenge blog. The theme is always Anything Goes and there are gorgeous digi papers on offer as prizes. I really enjoy working with these papers.
I have been busy making more Christmas cards. Last year I ran out and I don't want to do that this year. I used two of the paper sets the Gothic Flakes for the background and the trees were cut from the On It's Way set.
Our challenges are always Anything Goes. Why not enter click on the logo and you will be taken to the challenge blog.
I cut the Happy Christmas, Creative Expression's Die, from white glitter card.
The deer family were cut with the Sizzix Winter Wonderland die set. I make the female by cutting the antlers from one of the die cuts. They were cut in Kraft card and the edges inked with Distress ink. The trees were cut with the Branched Birch die from Sizzix. It is very easy to extend this die. In the background you can just see some green trees cut with the Winter Trees dies from Creative Expressions.
I did make two of these cards. That is a two more for my stash.
I would like to enter the following challenges:
