Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year - Last minute Christmas cards.

Hello My Crafty Blog Friends and Visitors

How are your preparations going? I hope you get everything done. We had a fabulous time in Brighton we visited the Pavilion, saw the Burning the Clocks parade and went up on the BA 360 tower. The main reason for being there was to see the Bootleg Beatles last Christmas concert. We were with our very good friends and staying two nights was amazing. There has a lot to organise for hosting Christmas dinner it is all coming together. We did have to pop out and get new tree lights as our old ones refused to light this year.

I did really badly with Christmas cards this year. On the last day I could craft I had to make eight cards. Next year  I really must be more organised. This is my favourite card I made that day.


I used an old card and I used the Double Pierced Square dies from Creative Expressions to make all the mats and layers. 


I cut out the blue-tits from the card and made a mat for it with the Square dies. 


I think I have used this sentiment die from John Next Door most this year. 


This card is nice and flat for posting. I have no Christmas cards left at all this year. 

I would just like to thank you f or all the visits to my blog and all the lovely comments that are left for me to read. Blogging really wouldn't be the same without you. I would like to wish you all a very

New Home Birdy

Hi My Crafty Blog Friends

How has your week been so far? I can't believe it is Thursday already. Where does the time go?

Today I am sharing another card that I have made using the paper and toppers from the June Issue of Making Cards magazine. I just love the cute bird images.


This started with a 7" x 7" white card blank. I used some Centura Pearl royal blue card to go between the mats of the papers from the magazine. I liked how there was some gingham in the image that matched the gingham paper. The ribbon came from my stash. Did you noticed I have used buttons again? Maybe I am cured of my phobia.


The images in the magazine are so bright, cheerful and cute. I decided to make it into a new home card it could just as easily be a birthday card. I cut the sentiment with some Britannia word dies.  


This was quite a quick card to make it was so lovely to have papers to hand that matched the image so well. 

I hope the rest of the week is kind to you.

Happy Crafting
