A Clean & Simple Christmas Card!

Good Morning!

Well as I mentioned a few days ago it's certainly been a while since I sat down and made a card. Well yesterday I motivated myself to create a few Clean & Simple ones for family members and today I'd like to share one with you all. I made 8 in total and they each varied with different coloured sparkly embellishments. Today's card is showing one using the traditional colours of Red, Green and Gold and the main stamped image is one of my go to favourite stamps by Penny Black for quick cards.

Hello Again & Design Team Call!

Hello There!

It's been a good few months since I last made a card as you will all know. Long story short I have had a lot going on in my personal life so crafting took a back seat along with my mojo. However things are slowly starting to get better so fingers crossed I shall be back crafting soon :)

On a lighter note I wanted to let you all know that the challenge blog I run called Creative Inspirations is holding a Design Team Call! After changing the blog to monthly challenges a few weeks ago I thought another positive change would to add some newbies to the DT!

If you're interested all you need to do is pop over to the blog HERE and apply!

Happy Crafting and hopefully you'll see something new from me soon.
