"** HAPPY NEW YEAR**"


My Very Best Wishes for a Wonderful New Year to Everyone....  Peace and Happiness

Who would think I'd still be making a few Christmas cards... you might say I'm getting a good start for next year but really I'm making myself put the crochet hook down and just finishing off some card WIPs in a pile on my desk and join in a last few challenges for the year



Let's Squash It! challenge #27 - Snowflakes and Stars
   Here I've used a Starry border embossing folder (which was a freebie with Simply Cards and Papercrafts mag - Santa Clause is coming to town), and brayered yellow Distress Oxide over them and added some glitter glue



Can You Handle the Pressure December challenge - with a Twist of Snow    and I've used a favourite Embossing Folder from Cuttlebug - Flurries, teamed with some die cut snowflakes and lots of sparkly mist.



Of course candles are always Chrismassy... so this one is for the Christmas Kickstart challenge #69
stamp from STAMPlorations: Christmas candles, silver embossed and watercoloured with Distress Inks
Have a Wonderful New Years Celebration - I'll be pretending I stayed up late to see the new year but most likely I'll be fast asleep,  Enjoy Yours and see you all in the New Year, hugs Robyn

Here are the latest blankets I've finished this week.... just needed ends sewn in and their borders

  3. Your snowflake card is just beautiful ... love the overall design. I think you have added this creation to the wrong challenge blog of ours. You've added it to the Double D (Candy Cane / red & white) challenge and not to our Can You Handle the Pressure embossing challenge (theme: snow) which is where I believe you meant to add it. I will delete it from our Double D challenge and PLEASE pop over to our CYHTP challenge and add it there.
