This was a commissioned card for Christmas 2019 which I hadn't yet blogged. The recipient is a keen Australian rugby follower, so I used a cartoon of Santa from a free clipart.

This is my design card for my Craftyhazelnut's Patterned Paper March 2020 challenge. .If you make anything that includes some patterned paper you can link your entries and you might be the randomly chosen winner of the lovely prize that I'm giving away. Please click on the challenge link to find out more and join in the fun.

This was a commissioned 8 x 8 card, using paper that I bought long ago - I loved it then and still do. Its from a Tim Holtz idea-ology paper stash vintage shabby - the collection contains all pink and turquoise blue papers. I stamped a piece of the paper using the lovely My Sentiments Exactly dress stamp inked with memento love letter. I cut this out and mounted with foam tape, adding some pearls The background paper is also from the paper pad..I used letters from stash for MIA and generated the Great Granddaughter and Happy Birthday with my dymo letratag with clear tape. Stickers were added and the numerals for 11.
