It's the 3rd day of December .......

and it's raining cats and dogs!!!

Happy Thursday .....

I thought we'd have a break from all the festive stuff ....... at least for part of this blog post anyway.

It's challenge time ....... and seeing as I missed out on last weeks Less is More (too much to do and not enough week to do it in!!) I'm making sure the same doesn't happen this week.

It's a Recipe week and they would like us to use .....

FRUIT!

I had the pear-fect little stamp set sat on my desk so this was an easy one ......


The stamps are from Wplus9 ...... they're called Punny Pears and they are soooo cute!!!

Pear-fectly CAS (sorry!) .... lots of white space.
I coloured the pear using Distress Inks ..... I made a mask from a post-it note, used the outside of it and then brushed the ink onto the pear.


I added the words ....  which also come on the stamp set


 and then flicked some of the same coloured Distress Ink onto the background


And of course there had to be something on the inside too


Just pear-fect!!


OK .... enough of the non-festive stuff ...... it's time to decorate the tree this evening.  It's up and in place, and the angel is on the top but that's as far as I've got ......


I've tested the lights and they're OK .... so far! Now I need to get all the decorations out ........ and remember where I've put the new ones ...... and transform this into something beautiful, festive and sparkly.

So ..... it'll be something quick for dinner, get the little man in bed and then it's me and Mr Buble for the rest of the evening ...... getting into the Christmas spirit! Ho! Ho! Ho!

Thanks for popping by ..... enjoy the rest of your day.

Cheerio until next time

Sorry for the late visit, but I'm glad I made it here. Your card is just the kind I love, pearfectly simple but beautiful, love all the white space. My decs are finally down from the loft so I think I may ask Mr Buble to join me later, he's a great help :)
Thanks for sharing with us.
