PBSC - Lace & Pearls ... My Extremely Late Card!

Good Morning!
I know your probably wondering why I am posting my PB DT Card on Monday instead of last Saturday ... well the reason for that is that I completely lost track of the days and only got a chance to make it yesterday ... 'slaps wrist' lol
Yet again my photo quality is poor, it's starting to do my head in now a bit to be honest, as I feel my cards look so much better in real life to what they do on here.
Anyways back to the point of this post!
This weeks challenge at PBSC was to use LACE & PEARLS on your creations!
I decided to make another Christmas Card for this and I have fallen in love with the Diamond Dust I have used on the snowflake lol
I hope you like it.


RECIPE:-
* PB Stamped Image & Sentiments
* Swell Noel Papers
* Cuttlebug Snowflake Die
* PM Adhesive Pearls
* Lace from stash.
Thanks for Looking, Happy Crafting! xxx

PBSC - Domi's Sketch!


Good Afternoon!
I am afraid this is going to have to be a very short post as I have work in an hour and need to get a shower as I have only just got back home from the Harrogate show.
Which by the way was well worth going to, and you can see here from what I bought! lol :


This week at Penny Black Saturday Challenge Domi has created a gorgeous sketch for us all to follow.
I used this for a christmas card, at first I was a little put off by the circle but after doing this I know I will definately use the sketch again! lol
Well I better rush off now to jump in the shower, Have a nice weekend!


I will write the recipe later after work you all :)
Happy Crafting! xxx
