Christmas Candles

By
Hooray it's the weekend!!! It's also Saturday and that means a 52 {Christmas} Card Throwdown Christmas card. This week the theme is..........


Here is my card


I didn't have any actual candle stamps so I improvised with an image from the Gorgeous Grunge set. The fir branches and pine cones were a freebie on a magazine (Creative Stamping Magazine) and the flames were punched from the Bird Builder punch.

There are some gorgeous cards from the DT this week - do hop over and take a look.

Bye for now xx

So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr
