Another day has flown past! I taught class today - two people on my table, but one decided to do some beading, she is making a beaded pen cover, very nice but the pattern is hard to follow, hence I haven't attempted it yet, LOL. Next week will be the last Wednesday class and the following week they put on a concert and everyone brings food to share. Will have to watch what I eat this time, alas nothing sweet!!
Wanted to extend a warm welcome to two new followers, Gail and Cindy. Blogger keeps changing how many followers I have every time I go on it usually reverts to a lesser number, I've heard other bloggers have this trouble from time to time.
Another Christmas card to share today.
The basecard is SU Garden Green and then a lovely vintage style DP from Meg's Garden mini paper stack called A Vintage Christmas, another freebie that came with a magazine.I stamped the image (from Crafty Individuals) in SU Choc Chip onto white card and then used Distress inks and a blending sponge to do the edges. I coloured the angel in with Copic Markers and punched a flower from SU Naturals Ivory and distressed that too. I punched 3 leaves to put behind it and added a very pale green pearl to the middle. A friend gave me some of her bits and pieces as she was moving into a retirement village and this lovely tatted lace was in one of the boxes so I put it down one side of the topper.
I am entering this into Make It Monday #64 - Anything Goes
I am heading off to bed, so thanks for popping in and I love to read what you have to say about my cards too
Take care and enjoy the rest of your day,
Sandy

ReplyDeleteThis is just lovely, with great detailing and colouring. I too have the same problem with less followers when I go on to my blog - thought it was something I'd done! Sometimes it's ok though! Thank you for visiting my blog and for your kind comment.
