Brrrrrrrrr!!! What a cold wet day outside, thank goodness I'm still putting my decorations up indoors. Now you may think that my house must look like Santa's grotto, but watch out for the photos at the end of my post and see for yourself.
Today, I've only had time for a quick card that is for the Less is More challenge and they want a
This time our theme is
Let it Snow!
So out came my snowflake stamps and sponges, and this is what I came up with
I stamped the snowflakes in Versamark across the top of the square card, and heat embossed them with white powder. The same was done with the sentiment. I then embossed 2 lines across the middle of the card and covered them with Post Its before sponging over the top area with blue inks. Gems were added for a little bit of bling.
Recipe :
Card = Whisper White
Stamps = Inkadinkado, and my stash
Inks = Versamark, Bashful Blue, and Brilliant blue
Tools = Heat gun and embossing tool
Extras = White embossing powder and gems
Thanks to my RA it takes me sooo long to do what takes a normal person only a few hours!!! but I think it makes my room look festive even if it does cause me pain to do it.
Here is my traditional red tree ( and I've just noticed the strange pale patch on the dining room curtains, and if it's not the reflection of the camera flash from the large mirror, it's a ghost ??)

and this is my fireplace, minus the large red baubles (which I hang from the top of the garland swag, and I think must still be in the loft) and the coals from the fire as Monty likes to steal them and hide them under the dining table!!
Tomorrow I'm off to Jacqueline's to play and it may be my last chance to go round before Christmas, so I'd better get my crafting stuff ready.
Thanks for dropping by and I hope you'll call again soon.
