7 Months until Christmas Fun Blog Hop

Can you believe only 7 months to go!!!
The lovely Shari from Shari's Pink Palace has invited me to join her monthly Christmas Blog Hop which happens on the 25th of each month...
Shari wants to get a bit more organised for Christmas and so asked a few friends to join her and have a bit of fun with a mini hop!
The plan is to make 2 cards......one card using a colouring medium and the other one using die cutting medium.
Here is the blog hop list.....I hope you can pop by and see what everyone has made..

Next month will be 6 months until the big day and we will be offering some candy along the way :)

So here are my creations...
For my die cutting medium I have used Bauble nesties with some patterned paper added.
This was then matted onto red bazzil cardstock.
Sentiment is from Hero Arts and is stamped with Memento Black Tuxedo Ink around the image.
It is finished off with some twine and stickles.

For my colouring medium I have used a mixture of Prisma and Polychromo Pencils...

The image is from Whimsy Stamps illustrated by Crissy Armstrong and is called Snow Fun.

I loved colouring this image as it really made me smile.

Paper is from my stash

Sentiment - Hero Arts

Buttons and Twine from stash.

Well thats it from me....

Another Neglected LOTV

How's your weekend been so far?
I am convinced that there are less hours on a Saturday compared to the rest of the week.

So here is another card using a neglected stamp from Lili of the Valley.

I have used another simple layout to show off this cutie.

Hope you all have a good day. I will try and catch up with you all later today as I didn't get much time for blogging over the last week.
