Trying to keep busy, making Christmas cards and mowing the grass, it was just about dry enough.
My card today features a Penny Black stamp called "wishing", it only cost me £2.50 for this wood stamp because it had been used at the craft shop for demos. I think it's real cute and when all the papers and image are given the distress ink technic it gives it a more traditional look that I'm aiming for this Christmas.
The papers are back to basic vintage 12x12 by Docraft , and at £5.99 for 36 sheets, a great buy I think.
The sentiment is from hobby craft,the wooden snowflake kars and a few gold gems to finish.
