SNOW PATROL


Hi a quick post tonight, I usually post on a Sunday but don't think I will manage to tomorrow.I made this card because I liked the digi stamp and wanted to try out my die cutting machine; it’s a cute stamp free from Dearie Dolls Digi’s, she is an amazing talented lady and the site has so many fab free digi's of all sorts. I love the cute mice on this one; I have actually made all the cards I need already so this is just for fun though I might give it to HB instead of the one I previously posted which I was going to use. I'm not planning to get much crafting done this weekend. We spent today out shopping at Stamford and the Christmas fair at Burghley House; we had a lovely time and got some great Christmas presents, which Is brilliant as I have very little bought so far…I'm usually much more organised! The plan is a quick post tonight as its unlikely I will get the opportunity tomorrow, really must do housework, ironing etc as I did so little since the weekend before last with being away for my birthday and work... time just disappears. Hope everyone has wonderful week. Hopefully I will get some blog hopping in some time and come visitHugs x

    What a striking card! Love the colour palette! Great combo with all the papers you used. The image is real fun... those mice are very cute. Love the rest of the other elements you used too.
