'Tis 'not' the night before Christmas

Morning blogland

Hmmm, so this is my post for the new challenge over at Passion for Markers and, the theme this week has been picked by the lovely Sue.  Sue, as you may have guessed, went for 'Christmas' as her theme  and we are sponsored by Dies to Die For, with a fab prize of a £15.00 voucher for the lucky winner.

I'm sure for all you crafters out there who make loads of Christmas cards, and make them early, this is going to be a fabulous challenge.  However, I'm not one of those and so this is the only Christmas card you're going to see on my blog for a loooong time! So enjoy!



Supplies used:

Digital stamp:
brought from an Etsy shop called zekesami and the image itself is 'Tania'
coloured with my Copics
(I do love a good poke around in Etsy shops!)

Dies:
un-branded stitched rectangle set
Creative Expressions - Stylish Script: Christmas Wishes

Anything else:
flat backed gems

And that's it folks.  Other than to say I obviously did something weird with the girls face, if I colour her again I think I'd create a full nose, not just a shadow of a one.

On a personal note we are still currently driving around at weekends looking at possible Universities for when TTT finishes 6th Form next year.  She doesn't want to go too far so we are sticking to within a 2 or 3 hours drive, but it still means we can cover a lot of ground! I'm starting to loose track of which Universities are which and so far none seem to stick out for her! Hey ho - I'm sure we'll get there in the end.

See you all soon,
Sarah
