WOYWW - Cards & Masks !

Hi hope everyone is well & not too stressed with too many things to cram into life before Christmas !

Just a short post this week as, although I have been busy crafting, I can't show you too much until my Christmas cards are received where they are headed !

So just a few photos to show you all !

 
 This was me crafting away on Saturday afternoon, Christmas songs CD on the player & making cards for my family & my friends at Scrapclub !


This is my desk now - with a whole flurry of card stuff still under way & the new masks that arrived from Stamps Away today ...



 These cards for for my nephews - cute découpage & papers free with a card making magazine !


And my new masks - I love poppies as you may know - so that one was irresistible -
! Loved the leaf border too & think that will be great for garden & nature type scrapbook layouts as it is 12" long.
On the left are the new aperture masks for inking frames and things - these will need to be played with - they looked good when demo-ed on the telly though !

To get you in the Christmas spirit - here is a house in the next village who go mad for the festive lights - raising money for charity - by the way that's Welsh for Merry Christmas written in lights over on the right !


And I couldn't resist showing you the photos I took of these teasels on a misty freezing morning on Sunday !


Have a great week & look forward to seeing you work desks this week !

  16. Hi Ali, you look very busy at usual. Lovely frosty picture of the teasel too.
    Your cards look very cute, your card is winging its way to you with a few die cuts in, didnt put tooo many in with postage charges being what they are, will do more for your next visit.

  18. You look like a sweet little Elf beavering away! I thought the desk you showed was all the stuff you took to the craft club with you! I was going to say you'd need a Tranny van to cart all that around, never mind a rolly bag on wheels!! I'd have to move if I lived next door to that bloke I'm afraid! Love the wintery teasels.

  19. I love the lights on the house - but am kinda glad it's not mine. How generous of the owners though - it's a lot of trouble. *Waving* there you are being busy - at least this year I'm done with the cards..will be bragging about this early finish for years!

  20. Hi Ali - the Tag Journal was supposed to be an Art Journal but I hadn't really got into AJ then. So I ended just sticking my tags in it. (what would I do with them otherwise indeed!) Here's my latest page http://ccraftcorner.blogspot.co.uk/2012/10/tag-journal.html Ending up having two months a spread plus other pages inbetween. Been quite a good way to keep my 2012 projects.

  25. Looks like you are having festive fun and getting lots of great results. Beautiful teasel pics and I love to see the lights but on other peoples places.... too OTT for me and I wouldn't like their energy bill!!!
    Thanks for visiting me and for your comment too..Jo x
