Morning girls
Did you all have a good bonfire night?  They were going off till the wee small hours here.  Lovely to look at but oh so noisy!  By midnight I'd well and truly had enough of the blighters!!

So onto today's card which is for the challenge over on Crafty Sentiments.
Our theme this week is ...
POPPIES

This is Lilly, and she's available via the Crafty Sentiments store.

There's not an awful lot to tell about this card.  Embossed white card matted onto some red cardstock and my version of a poppy made with a Spellbinders flower die, some brads and stickles.

Oh and I coloured her with copics.

So, it's back to the grind girls, I really could do with an extra day in the week at the moment.

Happy Crafting

I decided to alter a candle using this beautiful Christmas Cardinal by Stamp Art Design.

I then added a couple of poinsetta and some holly leaves which I cut with my cricut.  A ribbon and bow finished it off.

I could quite happily have stayed tucked up in bed this morning but that doesn't get the jobs done unfortunately does it?   

AND 

I may miss the postie which whould be a sin as I'm expecting my new e Bosser.  Hubby treated me, it's an early birthday pressie.  oh I can'r wait to buy some lovely big dies!!!

Today's card was one my son asked me to make.  Last minute as usual, why oh why do people think you can knock a card up in a matter of minutes eh?  So, I cheated and used a pre coloured image.  I doubt if he knows the difference anyway lol

papers - Papermania

charm - Inky Impressions
