Santa card (inspired by Pinterest!)

I saw this card on Pinterest and just had to make some. It is so effective, and so easy....just what I like!! The original can be found here; http://onehappystamper.typepad.com/stamping_inspirations_wit/2010/10/santa-card-with-instructions.html

Just for You....

My manager is leaving next week, and she has been really good to me over the years that I have known her. I was inspired to make this by a card I saw on Pinterest. I cut the pot from "Walk in my Garden", and the flowers from "Serenade".

Inspired by Pinterest...

I have discovered "Pinterest" today (if you haven't, then what are you waiting for?!). I was inspired to make a card with apertures, and I used the "Doodlecharms" cartridge to make this.

Good bye and....

We have had an agency social worker with our team for the last few months, and everyone has grown to really like him. Our office is next door to the railway line, and this chap has never got used to the trains sounding their horns ( somehow I think they are something more sophisticated than horns but I can't think what else to call them!!). Each time we have a team meeting it is everyone's greatest delight to watch him leap about a foot in the air each time a train goes by! So....a card with a train on seemed the most appropriate thing to make! The train is cut from the "New Arrival" cartridge.

Christmas heart.....

I am hoping to hold a fundraising coffee morning for Macmillan at the end of this month, and thought I would make a few things to sell to increase the funds. I cut the heart from "Gypsy Wanderings", and the stamp (as ever!) is by Penny Black. I plan to enter it into the Penny Black Saturday challenge here; http://pennybfriendssaturdaychallenge.blogspot.co.uk/2012/09/penny-black-saturday-september-challenge.html

Happy Birthday Carl.....

I love this "Little Claire" stamp set!
