That's it for this year...

 Good morning bloggers

Not 'that's it' for blogging (well probably not anyway!) but that's it for challenges over at Sweet Stampin' Challenges for this year - this is the last one of 2023.

We're seeing out this year on a Christmas themed challenge and will be back in January 2024 - my goodness where did this year go? I certainly don't know what happened to it!

As you can see it's a totally appropriate challenge for December as we are looking for all your stamped Christmas cards - I can see this being a busy one!

Here's mine:

Supplies used:

Rubber stamp:

Stamping Bella - Penguins bearing gifts

coloured with my Copics

Dies:

Un-branded DL sized stitched rectangle set

My Favorite Things - Inside & Out stitched circles

Picket Fence Studios - 'Merry Christmas' Word Topper Die

Anything else:

Docrafts embossing folder - snowflake

red card

sparkle card.

If you fancy a quick pop over to the blog you will see a wonderful array of Christmas loveliness and we are looking forward to seeing all your entries.

See you soon,

Sarah

A late, late, birthday!

 Good evening blogland,

This post should have been up last week - I thought I'd scheduled it, haven't been back to check until yesterday and realised it never appeared.  I don't know what I've done, but here I am to fix it.

Good morning blogland,

It's Saturday and so it's time for a new challenge over at Sweet Stampin' Challenge and it's a special one - we are celebrating 14 years, yes count them 14!, of challenges!  I 've been around for a lot of them, although with a very large break in the middle and it seems so weird sometimes that the blog is actually 2 years younger than my TTT.  I've made so many of her younger birthday cards and then used them for challenges!!

Anyways, enough reminiscing from me - on with the challenge.  In honour of our birthday the theme this fortnight is 'Birthdays'.  This is my card, and, quelle surprise, I was running out of time to make something new so this is one from the vaults.  Made but never shared.

Supplies used:

Rubber stamp:

The Greeting Farm: Miss Anya - Ian (I think it's 'My Guy' but I'll check.  It's so old though that I doubt it's available anywhere)

Patterned Paper:

Anything else:

A very old pre-printed foiled sentiment

Right that's me off to work out what I've used on this card. I'll be back!

See you soon,

Sarah

I hope you get a chance to pop over to the challenge blog and take a look at my Teamies work, it's fantastic you know! Then, while you're there, why not pop in an entry yourself, there's a lovely prize to be won.

I'm off now,

Sarah
