Christmas!

It's just around the corner and I'm not nearly as ready as I need to be!  Hopefully our challenge at Creative Inspirations will motivate me.  This time around we'd love to see your Christmas creations!

This fortnight's prize is from ALL DRESSED UP and is
2 DIGI'S OF THE WINNER'S CHOICE!


A short bio about Wendy:
Hi I am Wendy Burns I live in Nottingham UK with my husband and two children who have been the inspiration behind the characters,  in particular my daughter who has kept me up-to-date with blogging and trends.  I work predominantly within the textile children’s wear market, fashion and interiors.
I trained as a textile designer and although my work is digital based, I love to retain that hand drawn /sewn feel which I hope comes across in my artwork.
Digital stamps is a new challenge for me and the opportunity to work with the All Dressed Up Team and has been very exciting, in particular the creative way my characters have been given individual personalities by the designers .
All Dressed Up is a newly launched blog with an enthusiastic team who are passionate about stamping.  The coordinators Marilyn and Tracy along with an amazing design team are also known as The Dressy Girls.
We have a friendly Facebook page, regular blog posts, tutorials, challenges and freebies .The stamps can be purchased from the Etsy shop which is updated on a monthly basis.
We really are friendly bunch and would love to see your creations so please feel free to contact us and visit the All Dressed Up Challenge Blog.

Here is my card:

Snow/Glitter

Now that Halloween is over, everyone is ready for Christmas!  (Not me, my favorite holiday is Thanksgiving!)  So it's fitting that our challenge this week at Lovely hAnglar or Sweet Magnolia is snow/glitter! 

We are being sponsored by the lovely Ribbon Girl again this month, they stock the most beautiful lace, ribbons, flowers, pearls and so much more.

Lifelong crafters Mother and Daughter, Mary and Andrea were tired of having to buy full rolls of ribbon and lace when they only needed one metre.  Because they love ribbons and all things pretty, they decided to open their own online shop in 2010 and make small quantities of beautiful products easily available to all crafters. Mary owns the shop and runs it on a day to day basis as well as keeping the website updated while Andrea looks after the social side,  The Ribbon Girl Blog and the Design Team. They specialise in supplying small (or large) quantities of ribbon, twine, gorgeous vintage style lace and seam binding ribbon, tiny pom-pom and ric-rac trim, all sorts of buttons, fancy pins, a multitude of charms, pearl and crystal flourishes, wool felt squares, seasonal and unusual embellishments, mulberry flowers, sticky tape and accessories to card makers, crafters, scrapbookers and cake decorators. They stock only the best quality products and only offer for sale goods that they would personally buy and use themselves.

Here is my creation...






Thanks so much for popping by!  I hope you find time to create something sparkly or snowy for us at LHOSM!

Ribbon Girl: anything goes
Fussy and Fancy: ice/snow
