Double Dreamee Christmas!

Hmmm, well, these were supposed to be two quick cards but it turned into one of those days and they ended up taking forever! On top of everything else, the Estate Agent rang to say someone wanted to view the house this weekend. I don't have words for the state of the house at the moment. I'm not sure where to start. I'm not going to cry but I think my lip may start to wobble!!!

Back to the cards. These two digi stamps are from the Dreamees 'Christmas Memories' CD (www.dreamees.org.uk). I'm back to my favourite aqua and red combo - I find it most cheering!
I'm entering this one into the Winter Wonderland 'Ribbon and Lace' Challenge.

The papers are also from the Christmas Memories CD. Again, I've coloured with copics: R32, R35, R37, R39, E50, E23, E25, E29, B01, B000, B0000. The die cut baubles are from the Cuttables Number 3 CD at Dreamees. This is the CD that has the fabulous sign posts on it. If, like me, you don't have a new fangled cutting machine have a look on the Dreamees website for the die-cut range. If you can't see what you want please contact Carol or Hayley as I'm sure they'd be only too pleased to help!

I'm loving this snowman too! It's just super cute in pink!


These papers are from the Dreamees 'Back to Basics' CD which is still one of my favourites as it's packed with colour co-ordinating backing papers. Scrumptious. Get this ribbon - yummy scrummy or what! It's from Sam Poole's shop and is silky crush ribbon (or something very like that!!!!). The flowers and lace are from WOC. The snow is from My Craft Studio and gets everywhere. And I mean everywhere!!!!

Okay, that's me for today. I'm going back to do more ironing :(  Hugs from the reluctant housewife xxxx

Hi Sweetheart
Both cards are fab as usual, but I am loving that cheeky little snow fella, he's gorgeous!
Dont rush around too much, housework can wait but crafting can't.
