A bit of White on White

'Tis me again and unusually it isn't a DT card. I appear to have made lots and lots of cute Christmas cards and was lacking in those with a more traditional style. Spurred on by the latest Allsorts Challenge I made this...


...liked it so much I made two more!!


The white is Centura Pearl Snow White Silver card which was embossed with a snowy embossing folder. The die cut scene was adhered to a circle, finished off with a Sue Wilson sentiment. They were really quite quick to make, the longest time taken was poking out all the little bits from the scene...quite therapeutic actually!!

We are having a fun filled week so far!!
Yesterday the car had a service in the morning and my saddler visited in the afternoon to adjust Wills' saddle, he has been working hard and has become trimmer as a result. Shame it hasn't had the same affect on me...I am probably just more toned!!!! Today we refashioned his stable by moving the door which, at first, seemed like a relatively simple job...that took three and a half hours!! Amazingly there was no swearing involved and all measurements and subsequent cutting were accurate!! Yay!!

Tomorrow we are planning a trip to Dorchester, there is  a lovely market held on Wednesdays where we always buy our hanging baskets, they are beautiful and cost less than planting up our own. I am determined, where possible, to source and buy local for Christmas gifts this year so I hope to add some ticks to my list. 

If you have indulged me for this long...thank you!! See you later in the week.

  2. Your WoW cards are gorgeous Sarah, I find these so difficult to make for some reason. The Centura Pearl is an excellent choice for showing up the beautiful embossing. Enjoy your shopping trip tomorrow. x

  4. Yes I was with you till the end Sarah and what a fun week you have had, not least "refashioning" a stable door, but sounds like today might be a little light relief.

    A really beautiful wow creation and the embossing folder is a perfect for for the snowy village as the graduated dots resembles snow. Thanks so much for making a card especially for our Allsorts theme this week, lovely to have you join in.
