Santa stop here!!

Hello friends. Hope you are well today. 

I am still on a mission to keep adding to my Christmas card box and today have an old favourite to share.



 It's the lovely James who is still available here. I also used an old LOTV paper pad teamed with red cardstock and a die cut poinsettia to finish it off. I coloured him with Lyra pencils for a change.

Not much happening here today the forecast is horrid. We got extremely wet mucking out and walking this morning so I fully intend to stay dry for a few hours at least!! Whatever you are up to I hope you have a good day xx

Some challenges

Christmas kickstart #5 - have a very Beary Christmas
Winter Wonderland - Fuzzy Wuzzy
Crimbo Crackers #179 - Anything Goes
Christmas at Sweet Stampin' - Anything Goes

Rather a wet walk for us too but forecast appears to show worst of the storm passing us by, just getting the edge of it. Fingers crossed.
Having to type this one handed though as I slipped on the kitchen floor last Sunday and cracked my left humerus. No pot but rest and a sling for 14 days.
:(. Keep safe. x

Hi, Sarah! Your little bear is darling, and so sweetly colored. I am especially partial to the soft "kraft" color with the traditional red and green! It's beautiful! I am your newest google follower (#170) and would love if you would visit my blog and perhaps follow me as well!

So glad you uploaded your project to Christmas at the Sweet Stampin’ Challenge so I could come visit. Hope to see more of your pretty submissions in the future. Please check back to see if you are a selected DT favorite!
Warm Smiles,
