Hello peeps, how are you all?
Have you got your sparklers ready for tomorrow night?
No fireworks for us I'm afraid - apart from the fact that last time we let dh arrange some, he came home with industrial sized bangers that nearly set the whole street on fire - poor Suzie turns into a nervous wreck at the slightest sound.
It's a new callenge at Totally Papercrafts today.
Our lovely boss lady Cathy (*grovel *grovel *curtsey *curtsey )

I am cracking on with my Christmas cards and I used a LOTV teddy stamp here. He's coloured with Copics and a sprinkling of glamour dust.
I used a zig-zag stitch around my DPs and I even managed to run some plain, white ribbon through the machine
I bought some Marianne snowflake dies recently and I've been having trouble getting the DP out of them. Someone suggested putting a piece of greaseproof paper between the die and my DP - so I tried it. It worked a treat. It also gave me some delicate, greaseproof paper snowflakes, that look really pretty with a dab of glamour dust.
Pop along to the challenge blog to see the amazing work from my teamies and the fab prize from this week's sponsor Die Cut Dreams.
