What a nice start to the weekend ......

Happy weekend!

How's yours going?

It's been another lovely day here, sunny and warm ..... looks like we're having that Indian summer after all!  And, with only two jobs on the list for today, no need to rush around ... perfect!

One of the things was a trip into town for a spot of retail therapy .... got that one done ..... no problem!
That just leaves this week's festive make for Merry Monday's Christmas Card challenge .......

This week our cards must have a gift/present on there somewhere


What do you think ...... I've gone all cute again


The image is from one of the Penny Black 'T' for Transparent sets ...... the Wonder (30-040), stamped and coloured with Copic markers.


The wintry forest behind was created by masking Hedgie and his sleigh, and then stamping the small trees, from the IndigoBlu  Here Comes Santa stamp set, along the edge of a torn piece of copier paper placed across the card.

A touch of fine crystal glitter adds some snowy sparkle to the scene, and there's more of the trees on the inside too .....

With only 109 days to go until the big day ...... have you made a start on your Christmas cards yet?

We've got the little man for a sleepover tonight ........ we picked up the latest Thomas DVD while we were out this afternoon and it's already on it's third viewing ........ I think he likes it!

Thanks for popping by .......Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Cheerio until next time

Very cute card. Can't tell if it's framed but it looks like it is.
Love the inside also.
