Christmas Dreams


 Christmas has been and gone - another good one, apart from this cold  I now have.  And in this quiet time between Christmas and New Year plenty of crafting and thinking and preparing for the year ahead has been going on.

One of the first things I'm going to try on for size is joining in a challenge.  So, this Christmas card, is being entered into The Octopode Factory Friday Challenge Anything Goes.

 I used Distress Stains on the tag, the white stamping used a Stamping Up ink pad and the Octopode stamp was coloured in using my lovely new Neocolor II colours.

Did you notice the gap between the a and the s in Christmas?  Nope, it wasn't planned - just what happens when you type on a real, honest to goodness typewriter that you thrifted during the year.

See you next year, here's hoping it's a good one!

A quick card and a quick post

It was my neice's birthday last week. So, I whipped up a quick card for her.
And I also had a new phone, so I'm testing a quick post with it. Fingers crossed it works
