Geometric Trees


 

 

Using CAS Colours & Sketches' inspiration.

I turned the sketch on its side for my row of festive trees!

ABC Christmas challenge is for 'criss cross'.

 

 

Must dash - supposed to be at work in half an hour - oops!

Happy Wednesday everyone!

 

 

 

 

 

Birthday Splatters

 

Using this week's FreshlyMadeSketch.

 

 

We are dog sitting 2 extra dogs this weekend so it's a fun-filled household.

All 3 are currently snoring in various beds recharging their batteries before the next session of play and tousle ...

I think my 9 month old Alfie will be all sparked out next week when his mates go home!

Hope you and yours are all having fun.

25 Tags of Christmas

 

The observant amongst you may notice the discrepancy between the 25 tags of the title and the 2 tags in the blog post!

 

I'm taking part in Tracey McNeely's 25 Days of Christmas Tags as a member of the Uniko design team.

 

 

 

 

Do head on over to Tracey's blog HERE to find what it's all about.

She has 25 wonderful sponsors who are participating.

Every day a different sponsor is providing inspiration with lots of wonderful Christmas tags,

together with some fabulous prizes!

 


For my tags, I've gone for bold images and minimal colour choices with some ubiquitous Christmas sparkle and glitter.

 

Thanks for stopping by today.


 

Happy Birthday Blast

 

 

AAA Cards want masculine cards.
Using the colours from The Male Room Challenge.
I confess these had me stumped for quite some time!
Not the easiest colour combination ;)





Gorgeous sunny day today.
I hope the sun is shining down on you too.
