I just love this Penny Black Christmas fairy! I layered her skirt and stocking for dimension.

Christmas Fayre goodies!

I packed up these sweets to sell at a Christmas Fayre. The tops are decorated with a variety of Penny Black stamps.

Hot chocoolate "sliders"

These wallets contain a sachet of hot chocolate which rises like magic when the bow at the top is pulled.
I cut the mug from Gypsy Wanderings.

War-time wedding!

Our neighbours got married on November 11th in war-time style (apparently he is fascinated by the history of the two wars). He was dressed as a world war 2 soldier complete with tin helmet, whilst she wore a 1940's dress. The cake was decorated with poppies,and  the invitations looked like ration books. Somehow this seemed the most appropriate card to make for them! Both the stamp and the sentiment are Hobby Art.

Just for you....


I was asked to make a card for a colleague who is retiring next month. I still haven't decided between these two! Both the images are Penny Black, and the greeting is the very useful banners set by Woodware.

I told you that..........

...............I couldn't stop using this embossing folder!! Another lovely Penny Black stamp, layered to give some dimension.

Hooked on this embossing folder!!

I've made a couple of cards already using this folder (and I have another in the planning stage...watch this space!!). I couldn't resist using my new Fido stamp for this version!

Variation on a theme!

I so loved the card I made for this week's Penny Black challenge, that I made another very similar one!

Silver and snowflakes....

This is for the Penny Black challenge here ; http://pennybfriendssaturdaychallenge.blogspot.com/ . I used a lovely Cuttlebug embossing folder, and just added a few gemstones and some silver mirri-board.
