LOTV Christmas

Hi there lovelies - I'm hoping you are all well and happy! There's been a bit of a commotion in our house this week as my husband has been on the news - he was interviewed as an expert in liquid nitrogen in the case of that poor girl who had a cocktail made using the liquid nitrogen on her 18th birthday and had to have her stomach removed. Poor girl - I hope they ban the practice pretty quickly!

Anyway - onto happier things - I bought myself some of the new LOTV papers when I was at the show on Saturday and they're getting their first outing today!



I've followed a sketch from christmas cards with sketches - but probably won't meet the deadline! The card was really made for the challenge over at Lili's little fairies this week where we were asked to make a Christmas card for a boy! I think this is for a boy - especially with the kraft papers! The colouring is all by promarkers and the sentiment is hunkydory.

I'd like to enter this card into the following challenges:

Lili's Little fairiesliliofthevalleythursdaychallenge: Male Christmas card
guylousinimitability: Just to die for
fussyandfancychallenge: Easel card
totallygorjuss: Anything goes
sendasmile4kidschallenge: diecuts
ribbongirls: Boy card
simonsaysstampschallenge: Dies and /or punches

Hope you have a fabulous day and thanks for dropping by!

Hugs
