Not much time for crafting ...

... but this is a card I've made for a forum friend.

The papers are from my much loved Kaisercraft Chanteuse Collection  and the stamp is a delightful Lili of the Valley one

Using glitter and gems does not come naturally to me but the cup cakes just had to have them!

And Finally I've Finished ...

The Christmas Stockings I have been knitting.  I've really enjoyed making them and hope you find them fun too.

I just want to make one of the cable ones in the red and then I have the complete set!

News from Sheena's blog

As regular readers will know I am adicted to a particular stamp of the great lady.  For those of us who were drawn to stamping by Sheena ... there is more to come on Friday.  Go to Sheena's blog to find out even more about it.

On the home front, I am busy knitting Christmas Stockings which I will put up on here as soon as the last one is off the needles!

The End of Another Week ...

... and an important birthday for one of the younger members of our family; she is 13 and a bright and brilliant teenager.  She is quite a girly girl and I wanted to make a card that recognised her as a young adult - hopefully this will do the trick.

The papers were Nit-wits ones and the flowers were from Kaisercraft.  Both the sentiment and the digi-stamp were from Pink Petticoat , coloured with Pro-markers.  The sentiment and the mat behind the stamp are highlighted with Ranger Distress Ink - Victorian Velvet.

It's a bit difficult to see (clicking on the picture helps) but, instead of making a lid for this box I have used printable accetate (an idea borrowed from a forum friend) and printed with a background from the MCS CD "A Piece of Cake"
