Hi all, it's snowed.. and snowed... and snowed,  schools are closed today, there's several layers of the last few days that it's so treacherous to be venturing out anywhere, instead my table's been covered with several wins and I simply couldn't wait to use this one from Nutcrafters (wonderful people), i've quite a collection to get through ( I feel incredibly lucky and will be sending some simple cards for the Postpals children as it seems a while since I sent a batch off). This wonderful image is called 'bouquet for you'..coloured with Promarkers, ideal for a thankyou card! Digi papers were free from Craft fairy on one of the scrapbooking freebie websites, fab pink grosgrain ribbon with gorgeous stitching, sentiment from American Crafts stamps.
 
You may notice a sneak peek on the inside, ever so slightly.
 
I'm still creating a few personal gifts as this time of year seems to be full of birthdays, and  joyous ocassions. Still I like to make time for challenges too so there are several.. Nutcrafters 'flower power' as is Allsorts, One Stop craft 'thankyou', used the sketch from Sketch Saturday, Stampin for the weekend 'girlie' as is Dream Valley, Totally Papercrafts 'embossing',CCT 'diamonds are forever..the rhinestones on the butterflies', I Love Promarkers 2nd, Paper Pretties 2nd, Glitter n Sparkle 'sentimental', Crafts and me 2nd, and Bearly Mine 3rd. Many thanks for the lovely comments, all so appreciated, stay in the warm, bye!
