CCC(7) - LORRAINE L'S THEME - CUTE CHRISTMAS CARD

Well hello there girls and peeps - here I am with my 'early' card for the CCC.  I always post mine on Saturday 'cos I have to post my OSAAT DT card tomorrow and I hate having to post twice on one day - don't know why either!!!

Anyway the lovely Lorraine L chose this challenge and although she has since left our little band, her challenge lingers on!  She wanted us to make a 'Cute' Christmas card this time and here is my attempt with a lurvely House Mouse stamp.  These are such corkers and are a real pleasure to colour.  Thank you loads Lorraine 'cos I have really enjoyed making this card.

I used loads and loads of Glamour Dust on the Angel Corners and the Card Candi and it really does look more sparkly in daylight.  I made use of my Cricut machine to cut out the sentiment - Deck the Halls - (with boughs of holly ..... tra la la la la la la la la). Keep on singing girls!

That's all folks - for today that is - I am just off to sort Blossom out, she is sitting on a pot of crocus corms (thank goodness they have finished flowering).  Graham fed her to get her off the pot (plant pot not the other sort) and she wolfed it down and promptly returned to her pot in the sun, she is now curled up overhanging the edges.  A little like my bottom on a bicycle seat - whoa don't go there and I daren't tell you what would happen to a G string - if I had one!!

Thank you so much for visiting my blog and for leaving your comments on my last post - so glad you could see how happy we all were.

I hope you like my HM card, he is such a cutie, but he had better watch those prickles!  Please take care and enjoy this spring weather - DON'T FORGET TO PUT YOUR CLOCKS FORWARD TONIGHT!  See you soon girls.

Big hugs to you all
