The Design Team is looking forward to seeing your crafty makes and will pop around to visit you ASAP!


I feel a bit guilty about my card today, I planned to use this Penny Black Snowy Flight but had no idea what to do with it. I saw the robin and knew I should have it but all I could think of was making the backgound blue.

It didn't help not feeling 100% its that time of year with lots of bugs about and I'm on my second one, add to insult to injury I've twisted my good knee all of which hasn't helped my craftying mojo. So I simply cut out my robin with Simon says Stamp Stitched Squares and added a sentiment using Simon says Stamp Tiny Word Christmas.

I decided my berries are mistletoe so that is why they are white, coloured in with a Uni-Ball Signo White gel pen, when they were dry I dotted a black pen it was worth the effort. My robin was coloured separating and layered on top, that way I didn't need to worry about masking.


Do you use Instagram ?  If so please add  #ssswchallenge to your challenge entry uploads so we can see them on there too.
