Hope you've all had a lovely Christmas and are looking forward to a Happy and Crafty 2014.
Sorry I've been MIA recently, but with the extra demands on my time in the run up to Christmas both at home and at work I just haven't had the time to blog and craft.
I'm hoping now that my 'normal' routine has resumed I'll be able to get organised and fit in more crafting.
I haven't specifically made any resolutions, but I think getting organised and less procrastination is definitely something I need to work on!
Anyway after all that rambling I'm here to show you my inspiration piece for the Hobby House.
It's one of my Christmas cards. I still didn't make enough! My intention is to enter a Christmas card challenge every month, that way I'll have at least 12 next Christmas!
The image is Winter Fairy from Wee Stamps and has been coloured in copics. I used Go Kreate's Frilly #5 to create the base shape of the card and the papers are from Craftwork Cards' Christmas Post 8x8 pad.
Dies used:
Marianne Creatables Christmas Tree, Fence & Bird
Poppy Stamps birdcage
DooHickey tag
