a very merry christmas to you...

Hold on to your hands guys and gals! This mama just got back from a Girls Weekend Away, yes that is right 2 whole nights away and 2 whole days of crafting!!! I have not had a full weekend away in over 8 years... Yep bought time :)

I was so lucky to be able to spend that relaxing time with one of my very best friends (who was so kind to host) and was joined by many other of my crafting besties!!!

I got a load of crafting done and was able to play along in so many delightful challenges... Here is post #9 of 11 - yes you heard me 11 cards!!!

This card was inspired by the following challenges:



CAS Colours & Sketches - colour combination


Digitally Sweet - anything goes using digital stamps


Doodle Pantry - anything goes using digital stamps


QKR Stampede - children's card


Digi Chooseday - embossing (I chose heat embossing)



My Card:


Take the time to let your creativity bloom!
