Not Just Cards - December Challenge - Anything Goes

 Hello my Crafty Blog Friends and Visitors

Well Friday is here. It will be another quiet weekend for us. If the weather is good we will be able to get out for some walks. 

The December Challenge starts today at the Not Just Cards Challenge Blog the theme is always Anything Goes. This is my last post for this challenge blog.  I had decided to step down but the decision has been made to close this Challenge blog. When this challenge finishes and the winners are announced the Challenge Blog will cease to be active.

Here is the Christmas card I made for my hubby. Usually I make his card first. This year has been so odd that his was one of the last ones I made. 

For my hubby's retirement card I used an image with a shed on it from one of the HunkyDory Little books. You can see it HERE,   The image comes from a HunkyDory little book of Snowmen, It just seemed appropriate. There is a patterned paper in the background but is hard to see. 

If you click on the logo you will be taken to the Challenge Blog. 

This little image is so cute. We don't even have a shed. 

The sentiment and the foliage was made with a die set that came free with a magazine I think last year. 

I am not sure when I will give my hubby this card. We usually exchange cards sometime before Christmas. 

Have a good weekend. 

Happy Crafting

Pretty Floral Birthday Card

 Hello My Crafty Blog Friends and Visitors

I hope you had a good weekend. On Saturday we delivered the bunny hutch to someone who had requested it. That really is the end of an era for us. We spent the rest of Saturday and Sunday catching up on jobs in the house and garden. We did manage to fit in  a walk to our local country park.  Today my hubby has a day off. We are going for a walk at Mottisfont. Our tickets are booked. It will be nice to have a walk somewhere different and we might be able to get a take away coffee. 

Here is a floral birthday card. I made for a friend. 

This card started with the card blank. I have some very nice pinky red card blanks. The pattered paper was in my stash. The lacy die and the sentiment are Crafter's Companion dies. I do cut my own candi for the corners. 

This pretty little image came from a HunkyDory Little Book. 

This card was well received. 

Have a good week. 

Happy Crafting
