a christmas carol at CCC

Hello there! How are you? I am good but life has been very busy the last few days - I went to see an ABBA tribute band on Friday night - that was fabulous! I haven't danced so much in a very long time! On Saturday I took the rainbows to a Gruffalo badge day - they had lots of fun and were all smiles by the end of the day! And later today - well we have rehersals for our Plays in Maytime - the girls are both in one play, I am in a second play and there is also a third! Thats next weekend! Phew - super busy!

So today the theme at CCC is a card based on a Christmas Carol ... I wanted to use  a new stamp I bought from Port Sunlight - so I chose the Carol - In the bleak mid winter - and based it around that.


The hare stamp is from Hobby Art - I just love hares so I had to have both of the new sets and I hope to use them in may different ways - I love that I have got him on a Christmas card! Well two!!!


Here's a closer look at the unglittered one - I prefer this!

I hope you have a great Sunday!

Lots and love and hugs

Rachel x

    I used the same carol for one of my cards too Rachel. I love it when I see a hare tearing across the field. Thanks for your great cards. Christine xx

    Hares are such wonderful creatures and yours looks beautiful on your Christmas cards. I never really thought about it until now but I wonder why hares don't feature more on Christmas cards... great idea Rachel! Hugs, Anne xx

    Clever use of your new stamp. Love the cards and works well with your carol choice. Sounds like Port Sunlight was a hit with lots of folk. Zx
