Oldie but Goodie

Oh this little darling is one of my favourites, design by Elizabeth Bell and this is the original stamp from Sugar Nellie I believe no longer available, not sure if you can get her as a digi or another stamp store is making her now.
The papers are Nitwits, I print them out in quick print in hope I'm not using to much ink my printer is a bit of an ink guzzler.
This is last week sketch for Papertake Weekly obviously missed posting this card and I've missed their birthday too can't believe its 4 years but I've been blogging for 5 year how scary is that.
What I love about Christmas Cards you don't have to think too much in this case I just need snowflakes and lots of them, my icicle punch, gems and lots of glitter.

Shabby Chic!!!!!

Seeing that Belles'n'Whistles have released some old Elizabeth Bell stamps reminded that I had the originals from Sugar Nellie Stamps and they needed to be dusted off. This one is one of my favourites not sure why I wanted to used the grungy papers from My Minds Eye but obviously thought it was a good idea when I was colouring.
The sketch I used is from Sketch Saturday but I turned it a bit to suit my image. The large flower is a Stamping up scallop circle punch, Nikki my demo showed us how to make it, then I wanted smaller flowers but they didn't quite work out.
After working on this card I worked out that I could only make a couple of cards a day cos the third one I'm never quite happy with and this card was a third.
I wonder what label I should give this card!

Just a note

Wasn't sure how I wanted the Friday sketchers sketch to work but I'm reasonable happy with this one. The image is an Elizabeth Bell from Ladybug and friends that I got from Quixotic Paperie . The papers are a download from Sweet Shoppe Designs from Zoe Pearn, the sentiment is from Butterfly Kisses and add some ribbon and job done.
I'm trying to get on top of all the commitments I've made so I can concentrate on Christmas cards another reason for the short post.
