Bit of an overcast day here and a nip in the air..Hope your all well sorry I didn't post a card yesterday but after feeling cold all day monday.. I woke up early yesterday morning not feeling too good it seems I managed to pick up a sickness bug so wasn't feeling like making cards yesterday..but it was only a 24 hour thing I hope as I feel a lot better this afternoon and have managed to make this card..my first easal card so I'm going to enter it in the Secret Crafter Challenge..photo's are not that good sorry but where it's overcast the flash keeps going off even with a lamp on it..
I have used one of the lovely images of edwin that the Lovely and very talented linda very kindly sent me(thanks Linda) ..I have had another go with the distress inks..I'm determined to master them..I have put a little bit of glitter on the rim of his hat and the bobble..I cut him out with my nesties and use my new Ek success punches for the corners and the card throught the middle..
the string I raided from my hubby's ball in the shed and tied to little bells from my stash to it..
the card and gem dew drops are from my stash..the snowflakes are cut with my design objectives snowflake punch and a gem dew drop from tabby crafts put in the middle..the DP is from my stash and doesn't have a name on sorry..off now to make a lasagne hope I can cope but hope to be back tomorrow with a card or two..DON'T FORGET TO CHECK OUT MY CANDY AT THE TOP OF MY BLOG .. Enjoy the rest of the day..
