Ahh, finally back and it feels really good. Life kind of took over these last couple of weeks with Christmas and an ill cat that now looks like furry meatloaf. I would show you a picture of his head but then you would never visit this blog of mine again. He looks terrible the poor thing! It's first time his allergy hits him like this during the winter. Has always looked like a summer problem but no, not that lucky.
So for my card then, I have followed the wonderful sketch made by Claudia over at Friday sketchers. It's a lovely one and I will use it again that's for sure. So thanks a lot for that one Claudia. My Designer papers are from Bearly Mine which very soon will start the very new challenge blog. Please come and join us there. These DP are from the digi set Peach Delight. There will also be four new digis coming up in the store 2nd of January and let me tell you they are yummy!
My image is from Giordano and can be found at Joanna Sheens lovely store. I have many of those stamps but find them really hard to colour. Someone told me practise make perfect so that's what I do, and I do keep buying more of those cuties. :) These sweet little friends have I coloured with distress inks and it was stamped on Promarker heavy cartridge paper for Promarker pens. Flowers are all from Wild Orchid Crafts and the charm is from Pagoni. The half pearls is made with a pearl maker pen.
So with all this said I wish you all the best for the new year. May it be filled with joy and happiness and as much crafting as you wish for!
Oh! I am very humble to see that I'm getting more and more followers. It means the world to me and I hope you keep poping by every now and then. Welcome to my little corner of the blogging world! You make this meaningful and give me inspiration to keep going with this. Thank you to each and every one of you. You rock!
Love n' hugs,
Marie

Santa Claus is preparing for X-mas
With only a few weeks left till X-mas is here again, I've let our dear Father Christmas take the spot light for todays card. The stamp is one of the new ones over at Joanna Sheen's. There is a whole bunch of wonderful Christmas stamps in the Giordano stamp range. Fell in love with them the first time I saw them and are still aahhing and ooohhing over them. :)
In the corners I've used a stamp from Stempleglade grunge heart. Flowers are from Prima and Wild Orchid Crafts. My pearl maker pens has also been put to use after just standing at my desk calling out to be used. The ticket stamp is from Magnolia. For the first time in ages I have used my aquarell colours. It was such a joy to get them out again. Have hardly not used them since I had my big period of painting pictures 15 years ago. Have almost forgot how to use them. :)
I enter this card to the following lovely challenges:
* ABC Christmas Challenge - X is for X-mas
*Lexi's Creations - Traditional Christmas Colours
* The Stamp man - Christmas
So far it's a really dull day over here in Kalmar and I am not in mood for much. I think I go and find something to watch at the TV and the rest for a while. Get some rest and then hope for some new inspiration to make a card or two. Hope you have a little sunshine where ever you are.
Hugs,
Marie
