It's all about layering up at
I have layered my cardstock and my sweet little bunny rabbit is wearing a lovely layer too!!
Cute huh?!!
My Hubby, being 55 years old, recently had an invitation for a Colonoscopy as part of the new NHS initiative to catch any bowel cancer in it's early stages...bear with, there is a point to this tale!! He is very good about things like this ( me working in the NHS also helps!!) so we duly toddled off to Dorset County Hospital for this procedure, which was normal. While he was there I took myself off to The Range and, my word, I had a ball and bought half a dozen christmas paper pads, one of which I used here!!
I love the unusual black background and it goes perfectly with the little tree light embellishments that were in my stash. The circular sentiment is from a very old LOTV set which is sadly starting to perish, I managed to pull a couple apart when I was taking them off the backing :0( I heat embossed the stamped sentiment with white powder for a bit more texture.
So, that is me for today. I hope you will join us with your cute image and it doesn't actually have to be a Christmas card, winter will be just as welcome, as long as it's as cute as can be of course!!
I hope you have a good week. See you soon xx

Oh, my, she is so darling trying to get into her mum's sweater! You have showcased her beautifully, Sarah, with that had-to-have Christmas paper to match your awesome tree light bling! So glad to hear hubby did the deed and everything came out normal!! ❤Hugs, Darnell
My favourite shaped card and I love these Lee Holland images. Adorable bunny. By the way, LOTV are aware there was a problem with one batch of sentiments a long time ago (the wrong amount of materials in the mix when they were manufactured apparently). If that's the case with your set, if you let them know they may be able to replace them (I ready someone else who'd had the same problem and they'd replaced them). xx
A super card Sarah, such a cute image and those papers are fabulous.
It sounds like you had more fun than your husband!
