sketch saturday # 77

my eldest has his 31st birthday coming up so i thought i would get his card made because i have so many christmas cards to get done so that i can send them out and i am doing a fete at school at the beginnining of dec so it is busy, busy!!! this is for the sketch on sketch saturday. the stamp is a penny black called 'how becoming' from the glitterpot. i have cut off the balloon the cat was holding and cut different size balloons on my cricut, i have chosen these colours as daniel is an ipswich supporter (WHY???). sleep is calling now, see you soon x

just magnolia # 31

good morning to you all, the weather is taking a turn for the worse. i hope that it isn't too bad where you are. my card today is for the challenge on just magnolia and i have used another of my new stamps from the jolly snowy collection called 'sitting mary christmas' and i got her from sir stampalot (you may have guessed by now this is one of my fave places to buy my goodies). the paper is also a magnolia as is the noel and dresser stamp. the ribbon, puddings and charm are from my stash. thanks for looking in x
