Favourite five Christmas


So here we are Christmas Eve with a enough food to feed an army even though we promised to buy less this year, the presents are wrapped and the double sided tape and glitter have been put away till at least after Boxing day.
But it does mean I have a little challenge and if like me you were prepared and have the post in your drafts waiting to be published. My Favourite Five Christmas Creations (or in my case cards) of 2013.
There's a link after each card to take you to the orginal post.

Holly




A Portrait of Snowmen


Miles in Winter 




Now all you have to do is make a post of your Five favourite Christmas Creations and using the linky thing add your link to the post. This time I called it creations because we all seem to be diversifying into other crafts including myself.

    Me again Debby, I have just realised that I got totally the wrong end of the stick and this is all about Christmas, I really did think it was for all of 2013.

    I don't have time to re-do my post now so will add a little apology and perhaps you could remove my link.

    So sorry !!
