Well.... What do you think our Elf should be called, he's a wee bit cheeky and I have a feeling he's going to get up to lots of mischief...but, he NEEDS a name... Here he is having a bath in our drawer of yummy buttons....if you look closely you can even see the bubbles !!!! At least he's clean :) :) Myself and Nina managed to have a little play this afternoon....so what did we opt for ? Project Life of course!!! This time we made a couple of quick and I mean, QUICK cards, it's a no brainer for card making. Then, while I had my mojo out I had a play with my favourite die at the mo.... I love the simplicity of this die, coupled with Heidi Swapp Color Shine, Sequins, Twine, Diamontes and a WOW stamp, it makes for a quick and easy card. Fold your Kraft card stock in half, die cut 3 rows of hearts, splat some Color Shine, stamp the word Love, stick on some sequins and fill with a little Diamonte, tie 2 twine bows and adhere. Just round one of the corners off front and back ...

Project Life... After the excitement of seeing tiny footsteps in the shop, I spent the day playing with Project Life with Polly, and of course my mum kept us refreshed with hundreds of cups of tea..... Ok it was probably more like 3 or 4, but who's counting :) :) Obviously, others had the same idea, as we sold lots of it today, but don't worry I've got more coming in.....I'm addicted LOL !!! When I got home, my lovely hubby had got the tree out, then it was my favourite bit....decorating the tree. Here's a lovely atmospheric pic ..... The weird thing is, some of the lights are flashing, thing is.... I've never bought flashing lights !!! Getting the fireplace ready..... Still got stuff to add.... Don't want to over do it .... But can't help me a bit of glittery magic !! Hugs Marion xxxx - Posted using BlogPress from my iPad
