OK I give in!!!!!

Good Morning all, Well I have had to submit to getting on with Christmas cards, I cannnot believe I am making Christmas cards in September...lol What will I do in Nov/Dec.! but I just could not resist inking up my lovely Sugar Nellie candy from Elaine. Isn't this image so sweet and snuggly,it reminds me of the little birds that used to sunbathe on my big bulldog's back, she used to just turn her head as much as to say "ok but sit still I want to sleep" awww!! I love it xx
I have followered the Challenge Sketch and used my scraps so I think its not too bad really. I added a Chipboard Snowflake with a little sparkle added. I think the only thing I don't like is the sentiment, I am not into these printed pre-made ones or whatever you call them but I thought the colour was perfect so its on. 
The insert still needs a white bit with a verse, will do this at a later date. Well must dash as I am going shopping for odd bits for my little hols, will be away f or a few days next week in sunny Newquay...huh! we hope!!!!!
I will link this to challenges .....

  4. Hi Mau,
    Gorgeous card and image. I saw this image a couple of days ago, it is so nice and perfect for your First Christmas Card. I coulnted mine before and I have now made 26, so well under way. Once I started I just kept going and for every "everyday" card I made I made a Christmas one too. Last year I sold all my Christmas cards at the two fairs I attended, and ended up using my "own" cards to sell too. Grr, had to start and make mine all over again and it was December. Not getting caught out this year, and looks like neither are you!! Debbiexx
