Happy New Year!

Well, what a month December was.  It seems an absolute age since I last made a post. Christmas was fab as my No.2 son and family flew over from Ontario and spent a week with us.  Congratulations to him for getting his VP from his company who make a well known hand held phone/gadget.  And I got the latest model for Christmas too.

I made about 40 odd cards leading up to Christmas and didn't have time to photo any of them, bad girl!  I think that will be a resolution for the year and also to take part in more challenges as well.


Artydoll over on the MSE forum set us a challenge of creating a Valentines card.  here's mine.

The script paper is from Pink Petticoat and the gold mirri has been cut with the Spellbinders scallop heart die.  I made some paper flowers from pages of an old paperback punched out with an SU scallop punch from the lovely Monica and had great fun squirting Glimmer Mist and Krylon gold webbing all over them.  I embossed the main heart die cut with a heart plate I've had for ages and never used, it turned out to be one that is embossed used with a light box but I was quite pleased with the effect.   I'm glad that daylight is staying a little longer every day, I loathe these dark winter months.
