Christmas cards..1,2,3 & 4

I have four Christmas cards to show you today....When I got my last two Stampin up orders from my friend Jill of Jill stamps up  she very kindly gave me a little 'thank you' envelope and inside were these lovely images the little owl is from the Hostess set Cozy Critters and the reindeer, Santa and ginger breadman from the Cookie Cutter set.
My box with the Christmas snippets of paper and die cuts is pretty full so decided to make small 5 x 5 cards so I could use up some of my festive papers...
The little owl branch is an old Marianne die and the little robin I made is from the little bird in the Thoughtful Branches set (which I have yet to use)....
 

Love the little reindeer just coloured his antlers and a little bit of glossy accents on his red nose...

Little little Santa fits nicely in a round die cut and made a lovely little bauble card.

 

 This little gingerbread made is really cute...I even used the little blue envelope that my little images came in its the blue backing behind the gingerbread man...

Four more little Christmas cards for my Christmas card pile...

Enjoy the rest of the weekend and thank you for stopping by.

Birthday blues....

 

Its been a while since my last post AGAIN but we have been making the most of this glorious late summer we've been having, so we decided to have a few days down in the New Forest and it was lovely.

Back to my card:  I made this card for my friend Margaret who's birthday it is today, Happy Birthday Margaret...I just used several dies and some flowers also I decided not to put a senitment on the front of the card after reading on someones blog that they never do as the person who receives the card might want to frame it.

Blogging hopefully will now get back to normal as all the grandchildren are back in school and I've got more time in the craft room.

Sorry I haven't been able to get around to reading your blogs but hope to but that right over the next couple of days.

Thank you for popping by...
