A Penguin for Christmas

I've had a play today with the Mini Treat Bag framelits and some of the new Christmas paper, this is the Presents and Pinecones DSP (there will be an offer in October on paper so save those pennies).

I've also snuck in a super little mini jingle bell for his hat which is in the new catalogue.

I've also used:

Cherry Cobbler Silky Taffeta ribbon
Metallic Foil Doily
Snow Place stamp set
Snow Friends Framelit dies
Time of Year stamp set

Pretty Florals

Another easy card for today using a different colourway on the Detailed Floral Thinlits:

I've used white on white but added some little flowers which were 'scrap' from cutting out this die in Sweet Sugarplum.
The 'For You' is from the Treat Bag thinlits, mounted on a layered circle and finished with some matching ruched ribbon.

Yesterday this little chap also turned up on Facebook:

Just to mention that penguins aren't just for Christmas!

Thank you ladybirds

A friend of the froggy from a few days ago, this is another cute stamp from the Love you lots hostess set:

I've used a few dies from the new Layering Squares framelits and the sentiment is from the same stamp set as the ladybirds.

I've used a die from the mini treat bag framelits to cut the sentiment out.

Dotty swaps

These are the swaps that I made for our Bloomin' Buds meeting last week.

I've used the in colour DSP and made a mini treat bag.

These have then got some dotted lace trim tied round them and are topped with a mug from the cup & kettle framelit dies.

The sentiment that goes really well with it is from Balloon Celebrations.

The heart die is also in the set and I've used the Word Window and Washi Label punch to finish.

I did 10 using several different colour combinations - and added a sachet of hot chocolate of course.
