Anything goes at Christmas Card Club

 Its our final outing at Christmas Card Club this year - and the theme is anything goes. I only just remembered so I only have a very simple entry - more seed cards!


The stamp is Chocolate Baroque.

My mum did a HobbyArt workshop last weekend and these are two of the cards she made there using the cute robins.



Aren't they fabulous? I really like them! 
Well I need to organise next years schedule for CCC and will do that asap - but we will have a good long break first!

More Christmas for Countryview Challenges

 Hello there! Well another post from me already! You will be surprised to see me pop up again so soon!

I am over at Countryview Challenges again and I have made some more cards for my post - this time using some stamps from Hobbyart that are just lovely!


I have simply stamped them and coloured them using clean colour pens - nice and quick and simple!
I do hope you can join in the fun on Countryview Challenges - and don't forget to check out Susan's advent offers - they are too good to miss and new ones happen daily!

Big hugs

Deer at christmas Card Club

 Hello there! Well its almost the final outing for the Christmas Card club this year - and the theme this time is deer. I have used Hobbyart stamps to make 2 cards.


I did enjoy making these - although they are far from perfect! 

My mum also made 2 cards - 

This first one used a honeydoo wreath stamp and clarity deer stamps.


This second one is made using a clarity stencil and TH deer dies! I do like those deer dies!

Hope you have a great day!

A little slice of Christmas!

 Hello there! Well I have been making some Christmas log slice decorations in the run up to Christmas - I have really enjoyed doing this and wanted to share some here.







They are nearly all made using hobbyart stamps - there is one pink ink designs in there too though!
They have gone down pretty well in my sales!

Big hugs

Christmas Cracker at Christmas card club

 Hello there! How are you? I seem to be very busy with craft fairs but very glad to have finished teaching. I won't ever make a living at these fairs but its fun trying! I did one yesterday which didn't go so well - but I guess you have to take the rough with the smooth - and it takes time to learn what sells and where the best fairs are. At least it didn't cost me anything!

Today its another outing for the Christmas Card Club. The theme this fortnight is Christmas Crackers - I failed this time with the theme and have gone instead for anything goes.


my olde faithful camels - still love this image!

My mum was very good and found a discontinued sweet poppy stencil which she used to make 2 cards,




Well done mum - I think they look great!

Hope you have a good day - I am at work in the village shop all day! I will aim to return any comments tomorrow!

Big hugs
