It's Christmas Eve. I hope you are ready for the big day? I had a last minute panic yesterday because I forgot to buy eggs but a quick trip to the local store and it was sorted.
The following cards are all from the gorgeous Hunkydory Adorable Scorable kit called 'White Christmas', the individual sheet is called 'Winter Blooms'.
These snowdrops are so pretty, I wanted to make something a little bit special with them. I cut the A4 backing sheet into three and folded a plain sheet of card. I carefully cut around the leaves so I could have them lapping over the circular design once I had mounted in on 3D foam. I mounted this central panel on silver mirri card and attached it to the plain card. Then I added a sentiment and a few flat backed gems.
I had a lot of small elements left over after making the other cards from this kit. I found a silver frame from another kit and place it on some of the backing cards. I then added some of the circular elements around the frame like planets on an orbital course.
I made a simple stepper card with some of the backing card and added a large image of Paperwhite Narcissus. You know Spring is on it's way when these little beauties raise their delicate heads.
I am feeling a little sad this morning because our elves Louis and Coco and Daisy, Danny and little Dot went back to the North Pole last night.
Oh look the tree Daisy and Danny left the children the night before has grown, what a cute looking tree. It reminds me of a tree in a big garden I used to walk pass on the way to visit my grandparents when I was a child but I cannot remember it's name.
Daisy and Danny spent Friday just hanging around!
But last night they packed their bags ready to leave.
They left the children a note saying that they had to go but they had left them a present each.
Here are the presents they said they would leave and there is Santa taking Daisy and Danny back to their home at the North Pole. Good bye little elves you have entertained us all month. You shocked us when you were naughty and redeemed yourselves with your random acts of kindness. See you next year. Bye bye!
I should like thank all of you for taking time out of your busy days to visit us and leave comments. I should like to wish you, and your families, a very happy Christmas. Enjoy the holidays.

How lovely to see snowdrops and such gorgeous images too. Sad to see the elves go, it feels far too short a time. Will miss your daily blogs too, it's been a treat I've looked forward to every day. Glad you git eggs, they are in very short supply in the supermarkets up here, fortunately we get ours from a farm via the greengrocer. Hope you and Ray have a very happy and relaxing Christmas. xxx
ReplyDeleteHi L, thank you do much for taking this journey with me for another year, I have lost count of the number of years we having laughing at all of the tricks those elves get up to.
DeleteWe have been meeting up with family and friends for the past few days and today we had an alternate Christmas Day with my sister and her family, We had a great time but my bed is calling me now.
Have a great day tomorrow, give P a big hug from me. Try not to work too hard running round the others.
