What a lovely mild Christmas we have had..missed the snow on Christmas Day though!! Hope you all had a really GREAT Christmas...and that Santa was good to you all! We had a lovely time here lots of lovely goodies to eat and drink, and a little doze in front of the telly lol! Candice was really chuffed with her pressies..got quiet a lot that was on her wish list. We all missed Steven and family, it wasn't the same without Liam running about ha!ha! Have been in work all week so today is the first day I have had chance to sit for more than five minutes..so thought I would show one last Christmas Card I made for my Mum. I have used the sketch from A Gem of a challenge by Rebekah ...lovely sketch to work with hun really enjoyed making this card, and Mum loved it. I made the embellishments with a Marianne snowflake die, and added lovely red roses from WOC to it, and stickled with Gold Stickles. Added Stickles everywhere and used Glossy Accents for the baubles which you can't really see on the photo...sorry! Does look good in real life though lol!!
