Good morning my lovely blog friends......hope you're all well & happy
April to you all.......April already!!!!!
Thanks ever so much for all your get well wishes....I'm still feeling rotten
can't remember having a cold this bad before! Anyway, the reason for
today's post is to tell you all about the new challenge starting today over
at Sparkles Christmas Challenges where the theme is 'Inspired by a Christmas
Carol'! Oh wow, I loved making this card.....love making Christmas things
anyway but for some reason this is already a favourite for this year!
So, as usual, you can make any Christmas craft item you like just so long
as it matches the theme & you could be the lucky winner of this fab prize
from this month's sponsor Marianne Designs!
I used a gorgeous image called 'Catching Snowflakes' from Time for Tea, the
1st time I've coloured it up and for once I'm happy with my colouring lol!
I was inspired by the Carol 'Walking in a Winter Wonderland'....I love Winter
so this was fun for me to make! Do try & find time to pop over & join us, after
all, it's never too early to start prepping for Christmas & don't forget to go check
out the amazing Dt makes.......everyone's a stunner!
Rightio, off back to my hot water bottle & my box of tissues......thanks for calling
today.........see you soon!
