Christmas in March

Hello, and welcome!

Did you have a nice weekend?  Pretty quiet around here, which was just as well because I felt totally exhausted!
Not sure why.....but I missed the first half of church, yesterday, because I didn't wake up until 9.45 am.......and on Saturday, it was almost 11.00 am when I prised my eyes open!!
I must be due for an oil-change, or something....haaaa!

I had planned to share a card that I've made for Olivia's birthday, tomorrow........she's  turning 7, and is already in love with Justin Beiber......but my camera keeps telling me that there is a "File Error", and won't let me retrieve the photos, or take any new ones!.....ggggrrrrrr!!!!

Soooooo, my lovelies, you get to see a little Christmas one, instead.......piccie already on the 'puter, so here we go......

I coloured this little fella ages ago, and he's been in my "to make" box ever since, but was so quiet, and well behaved that I almost forgot him...shame.......!
He's "Puppy Post" from Lili of the Valley, and is coloured with the usual Promarkers........
Scraps of paper used, and edged with chalk ink, and strip of toning paper ribbon across the width, under the image....

I glittered up the top of the post box, the snowflakes, and the bottom of the image.......

I used a Martha Stewart vine border punch on kraft card, then inked, and layered up with scrap paper......threaded 2 teeny jingle bells onto string, and tied it around the border strip.......

The green heart was coloured with a Holly Promarker....the heart is the inside bit of a larger Cheery Lyn heart die.....popped a gold snowflake button on with a silicone dot.........the end!

I'm really hoping that my camera is not going to be naughty for too long....couldn't ask the Hubster 'cos he's working away until tomorrow........only his third day of work since Christmas.....so will have to wait until he's back....no chance of buying a new camera, that's for sure!

Before I leave you in peace, just thought I'd give you a heads up....especially if you like Steampunk......because foldedpaperprintedpixels.blogspot.com has some truly beautiful new digi images....and I know because I won some....thank you again, Sara!!
And another heads up about the 2nd BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION that's going on over at The Shabby Tea Rooms.......great give-aways to be won, so go take a look!

Hugs,
Anne-Marie x
