Happy New Year everyone:0)
I hope 2018 will be a good one for you and that it has started well.
It's the first 2018 challenge at
and we are kicking off the year with Anything Goes.
I still had my Christmas stash on the floor desk so decided to get ahead and make some cards for next Christmas.
The little elf stamp was from a Christmas present to myself that I had ummed and aaaahed about for some time, but finally convinced myself that I needed!! The paper is from a Lawn Fawn paper pad that I bought some time ago and couldn't bring myself to use!!
I hope you will join us!!
Before I go I must share picture of our Granddaughter, Mollie Rose, in one of her Christmas outfits...
...cute huh?!!!
See you soon xx

Hi Sarah, hope you had a lovely Christmas and new year. What a little adorable poppet your granddaughter is. Gorgeous. Loving your card. Good for you Hun, fab paper and stamp. So fun. Take care. Hugs xx
ReplyDeleteOh, good heavens, Sarah, Mollie Rose has stolen the show!!! What a beautiful girl in her cute outfit!! I do love your card, even if I had to tear my eyes off the lass to go back up and look at it again, lol! I'm very proud of you for buying yourself that adorable elf and for using that beautiful plaid instead of hoarding it!! It's perfect as a background with the scalloped edging around. And I love how the curve of the elf's cap is perfect for a circle ~ awesome design!! Happy New Year! Hugs, Darnell
