Mid Way Reminder HMFMC #329

 

You still have a bit more time to join us for the House Mouse & Friends Monday Challenge -- Christmas or Anything Goes.  

I added glossy accents to cover this ornament, it's hard to see in the photo, but in real life, it has a glass like look.  

This "Candy Ornament" stamp was given to me by Stampendous... I'm using it because I love it.

Please use any House-Mouse, Happy Hopper or Gruffie image

HMFMC #329 Christmas

 

It's time for another challenge over at House Mouse & Friends Monday challenge blog. The theme this time is Christmas or Anything Goes.  I "think" I'm finished with the Christmas cards I need for this year.  But every time I say that, I think of someone else that I want to send a card to.  This may be the start of next year's stash.  One thing I realized this year, was I need to make more flat cards.  The cost of postage to mail cards that have thick bows or embellishments adds up quickly!

Cardz 4 Galz 135 Cute Christmas

 

It's time for a new theme challenge at Cardz 4 Galz ~ Cute Christmas!  It's hard for me to wrap my head around the fact that it's almost time to be mailing out Christmas card!   I have done a much better job this year at working on them ahead of time.  I'm hoping I'm not making Christmas cards for several more weeks.  How about you?  Do you send out very many cards?  Are you finished with yours?   I hope you'll join us for this challenge.

Growing in Unity Blog Hop

 

I have two teenage boys, who both have December birthdays.  I had this card sitting on a pile on my desk & both of them came in & thought the card surely must be for them.  I told them no & they didn't believe me.  They thought I was trying to keep it a surprise.  Later, I had an envelope addressed & had it sitting next to the card.  They realized that the card really wasn't for them.  So now, they both begging me to make them one like it.  This "Say it Big" stamp set for Unity makes it easy to make birthday cards!  

Make sure you go to the next blog in the hop.

Bio.

I have been drawing since a child and studied graphics at College many years ago, I now work as a Medical photographer part time but my love was always drawing. I started cardmaking about 4yrs ago when I bought my daughter a cardmaking kit which we did together, but I’m afraid I got the bug! My daughter preferred scrapbooking. I then started looking online at other blogs and this then became my passion and I loved sharing my cards with like minded people.

I love stamping and loved finding images, but sometimes I could not find what I wanted so I started to draw myself.

This then has become my second addiction and I have never looked back, I love thinking of new images, and its just fabulous to see others take them and make them into beautiful works of art. Long may it continue!
