Christmas card club: Baubles

Hello lovelies! How are you? I hope you are well and happy. We are good - tired after yesterday but it was a lovely day and we were blessed with the weather. Lucy certainly had a great party - it started on the treetop nets - with Penny and 6 friends.




Then it was time for lunch ... and that cake ...


next we did the treetop trek ...

    

and finally the triple zip ...

      thats me!!!!

A great day was had by all!!!

So today we have a new theme at christmas card club - I had great ideas for this one but only 2 makes have materialised - just too busy!!!


This one uses clarity stecils and some stamps from hobby art plus a magazine....


Very unlike me I know but I wanted something a bit different - a mixture of dies and not a stamp or ink to be seen!!!

Don't worry - normal service will be resumed shortly!

Have a great Sunday - whatever you do!

Hugs

  1. That is a beautiful scene you created in the first card and a very elegant card you created for the second one.
    Such a different look for the two of them and each has a unique beauty of its own!

    The party looks like lots of fun. Your girls must have had buckets of fun!
    There are zip lines across the lake, We drive past them on our way here...I am a chicken about heights so although they are not for me, I do think the grandkids would love them!

  14. Enjoyed seeing the party pictures and all the fun & adventures these girls were obviously having. Nice to see there was a sunshine day for them to enjoy being outside. Loved both of these cards, and the stenciling within the ornament shape is so pretty. Loved all the silvery sparkle on #2 as well. TFS & have a great week.
