Santa's little helper...

Normally I make a few Christmas cards for the younger grandchildren to give to their friends...When I saw this lovely Tim Holtz Sizzix die I loved it and the fact that I could use up some of my every growing pile of snippets.
Backing paper was also an odd bit of paper just added the Christmas sentiment.

Having given up our craft club I am slowly sorting through my craft room as I need to de-stash and reduce what I have.... I'm also trying to use 'bits' of odd DSP as well as you well know us crafters throw nothing away..

Its a beautiful day down here in Somerset, hope the sun is shinning where you are as well...keeping well away from the Bank Holiday crowds...

Thanks for taking the time to stop by..enjoy your weekend

Oh Anne how wonderful - I love your Christmas card. I have this die but have not used it yet but I think I might just have to copy your card. I love the little guy with his red shoes and hat. I love the different colored packages with the different colored ribbon. And your Merry Christmas sentiment is perfect for the design of your card.
Bravo Miss Anne - you have won a gold medal!!

What a cute and fun elf balancing that stack of parcels Anne and a wonderful die for using up bits of card and paper, and love the pretty colours and a great background paper, also a lovely large stamped sentiment with the added strip to finish it very stylishly. x
