Winter Wonderland Challenge blog - Things with Wings - Sheepski Designs

 Hello My Crafty Blog Friends and Visitors

How has your week been? I am very tired I have been invigilating most of the time. I would have been helping at a Felting Workshop today but of course that had to stop. So it just me and hubby for a while. No trips out no visiting, There is so much to sort out in the house I don't think this will be a problem. 

The new challenge starts today at the Winter Wonderland Challenge blog and the theme is Things with Wings. I do love this theme. The sponsor this time is SheepSki Designs. 

The patterned paper in the background was in my stash. I really do have a lot of paper. 

There are so many wonderful images in store. Click on the logo and you will be taken there. 

This image is called Stack and it is available HERE.  The image was printed onto Neenah card and coloured with my Faber Castell Polychromo pencils. The snowflakes were cut with dies that come in Jane's Tree die set from the John Next Door range. 

This is a Crafter's Companion die. 

I really do have a lot of Christmas cards made. We aren't really doing presents this year but I will be sending cards probably to more people than usual. 

I would like to enter the following challenges:

Moving Along with the Times (MAWTT) - Things with Wings Challenge

Hello My Crafty Blog Friends and Visitors

How it your week going? I am pleased the weather has got a bit cooler it makes it easier for me to get things done. This evening I am meeting my hubby in town and we are going to see Avenue Q at the Mayflower theatre. There was an offer and they are hard to resist.

I am hosting the next challenge at the Moving Along with the Times (MAWTT) Challenge blog and I have chosen the theme Things with Wings.

I was asked to make a card for the 80th Birthday of one of my in-laws good friends. He was a Paratrooper and that's what they wanted for the theme of the card.

I had to do quite a bit of research for this card. I found the paratrooper badge and the some other bits on the computer. This is a Z-fold card. I do like making these. 

This is a photo of the chap in question. He is very good to my husband's parents. They have even spent Christmas together a few times. 

That is the Paratroopers badge and it has Wings. You can see the badge on the hat in the photo above this one. 

I was quite surprised that this chap was 80 he really doesn't seem like it. 

With some of the left over bits I made this card for the chap from my hubby and me. 

I know he was thrilled with this card. He kept talking to people about it and showing them. It is nice when something you have made makes someone happy. 

I would like to enter the following challenges:
