The theme this week is Use an animal. The details of the challenge are here on the crafty pad blog - there are two prizes this work courtesy of Creative craft world (£5 voucher) and Letraset (pack of muted tone promarkers).
I've chosen to use Holly and Harvey mice with Mistletoe on my card - they're available here.
I'd like to enter my card into the following challenges:
totallypapercrafts: Christmas
jinglebellesrock: Creature Feature
cutecardthursday: Got glitter
abcchristmaschallenge: U is for up to you
totallygorjuss: bling it on
thepapershelter Charming
panpasteluk animals
christmascardchallengess: Bows
I'm also excited to tell you I was given two blog awards yesterday from the lovely Lyndsay over at craftymonster81. Thank you so much Lyndsay - I'm thrilled to recieve them both:
Both of these awards come with some rules:
- I am to publicly thank the people who gave them to me.
- I am to share some information about myself
- I am to nominate some of my favorite blogs
- I am to comment on their blogs to let them know I’ve awarded them.
The
One Lovely Blog award asks me to share 7 facts about myself while the
Sunshine Award has some specific questions for me to answer. The
Sunshine Award questions will effectively cover the 7 facts about me.
- Favorite color: Red
- Favorite animal: probably pandas, but I love all animals
- Favorite number: 8
- Favorite drink: a nice glass of Shiraz
- Facebook or Twitter: Facebook i can't do the tweet thing too!
- Good book or good movie: I'm not very good at sitting still for either to be honest - if I didn't have anything else around I would probably choose the book!
- Giving or getting gifts: Giving - I love doing all the Christmas shopping and thinking about what to get people - I do love getting gifts too though!
- My passion: crafting! And my family - and I do love a good run!
- Favorite day: Most days are good!
- Favorite flower: I love so many - gerberas, daffodils, tulips, sunflowers, poppies, need I go on?
So
now I have to nominate 3 people to get these awards which is always
tricky because there are so many talented and lovely bloggers out
there, but here are the people I have chosen for this one,
anne at bollyanne
Dawn at dawn-dawnscrafting
Elaine at wheelerscraftiness
I hope its not too much trouble for you to get these awards - Elaine I know you're not well so I fully understand if you don't feel up to accepting it hun!
