This is one of my all time favourite Christmas images of Wendy's he's called Nutcracker Kiddles and you can find him here. I always make a card with him each year he's just so cute! I have coloured him with my Copics and used quite a lot of Stickles around the mat which are cut with Spellbinders dies. I made a centre step card for a change. I have used Memory Box Frostyville Border and Lawn Fawn scalloped stitched borders. I think the papers are MME but, to be honest, my craft room is such a mess that I can't find a blasted thing in it at the moment. A massive tidy up is on the cards for the New Year (yet again).
On a sadder note, Delightful Challenges are having their last challenge today. Wendy has decided to close the challenge in order to devote more time to Digital Delights - which will not be going anywhere!! The last challenge is Celebrate and is sponsored by Digital Delights so we would love to see your creations in our last challenge.
I am taking my Aunt out for lunch today, our last before Christmas. I am going to make some spiced red cabbage this morning and pop it in the freezer for Christmas Day. Yesterday I made Mary Berry's White Chocolate and Ginger Cheesecake and that is languishing in the freezer too - I am fast running out of freezer space!!
Thank you so much for calling to see me and all the lovely comments, I really appreciate them as I know how busy everyone is at this time of year.
