Another couple of Christmas cards

 You can find my InStyle Stamps blog hop post here.

 I am hoping these are going to be some of the last Christmas cards (apart from some I have to blog as DT cards!) I hve to make.  Having sliced into the top of my thumb, crafting is a little clumsy and painful so not very fussy cards .. .well not VERY fussy!!!

 I matted Tilda onto a hAnglar garland stamp and then coloured it in.  I wasn't planning on cutting the images out but the purples bled out as I mixed them :(.  I followed the Just Magnolia sketch, I love the simple layout. The dp is Basic Grey Eskimo Kisses.  I added some ribbon, spray pearsl, flat backed pearls and flowers to complete it.  I am not totally sure I like it!!  Too ... err not sure, busy?
I am also entering it into this week's Basic Grey recipe challenge, Fuss and fancy's Christmas without red and Green challenge,  and Charisma Cardz One for the girls challenge.

 I adore LOTV images and this little boy looks engrossed in decorating his tree!  I him in using my pens and then followed the sketch over at Lili of the Valley.  The dp is Basic Grey Jovial, and I added raffia rather than the scalloped detail.    As there are stars it also fits the Paperplay stars challenge, and it fits the Totally Gorguss Christmas Trees theme.

Ellie has had er birthday party this afternoon with Ewan, who was born on the daty she should have been LOL!!  2 very tired little girls now tucked up in bed, and hubby is cooking my tea :)  He's not letting me near knives at the mo .. .just wondering how long my thumb can be 'poorly' for :)
