Dreaming of a white Christmas - Elzybells Challenge 34

This is a special card I made for a very special little boy. My Best Friend's son was born in February so will be enjoying his first Christmas this year. I had this card in my mind for ages so was glad to see that it would fit in with the latest Elzybells challenge which is white, blue and silver.

All the stamps I used are Elzybells but I altered the baby stamp slightly. It normally had stars around the little baby sleeping in the moon but I did not ink these up and instead added tiny Elzybells Snowflakes from the Seasonal sentiments set.
I paper pieced the blanket from some K+Co backing paper and made a frame to match.
The image was stamped on to some white embossed Bazzill card which reminds me of snowballs and this was also used matted on to some DCWV blue textured card for the card base. To finish I stamped the Elzybells sentiment in the bottom right of the card and added some tiny silver gems and some glitter glue to the moon.
I really love how this card turned out but I think Patric may be a bit young to appreciate it. I hope his Mummy and Daddy like it though!
Make sure you pop over to the Elzybells blog to take part in the Challenge. It is the last Challenge for the current Design Team and they are going to be greatly missed having produced such inspirational projects since I have been following the blog.

Too cold for Pole dancing???

I received an unusual card commission this week...Pauline who organises the Pilates classes at work asked me to make a card for the teacher Anna.


Anna is not your regular Pilates teacher, she is a massive keep fit enthusiast and also teaches Pole dancing.
She is amazingly fit and very in demand for her Pole dancing. She has danced at the Britney Spears first night party in London and also at Glastonbury, she also teaches Pole dancing for those wanting to learn!
I decided to make a card with a 'Pole' on it and what better for this time of year than the North Pole!
I hope she likes the card, I used K+Co and Basic Grey papers and an image I found on the web. The stickers are Papermania and the Snowflakes are Sizzix and a punch.
I can't believe it is Friday already. I have nothing planned for Saturday bar a bit of cleaning, present wrapping and a LOT of crafting! Christmas shopping is all done now so I can relax.
Have a good Friday.
