Hello lovely people,
That's another couple of study days at Bath completed so my next challenge is to complete my Christmas cards!
That's another couple of study days at Bath completed so my next challenge is to complete my Christmas cards!
While I am drowning in Christmas images and glitter it's time for a new challenge at As You Like It and our theme is...
YOUR FAVOURITE...traditional or non-traditional Christmas colours
...and don't forget to tell us why it's your favourite!
We are sponsored by Crafty Ribbons for this challenge
I often favour non-traditional colours (well, you know how much I love pink!) but this year I found some really lovely papers in reds/greens/creams so it's traditional all the way for me!
How adorable are this couple?!
A great image for a first Christmas as Mr & Mrs.
I think these colours look especially lovely teamed with Kraft card for a really cosy feel and I am glad I bought a few more red roses in my last flower order!
