Snowman and his family

Christmas quickies



As if I didn't know what date Christmas is, it approached surprisingly fast, and so I had to produce a batch of very quick cards. Even those felt like a conveyor belt.
Here are my quickies made with Stampington (Night town) and Tanda Stamps (tree/Christmas plate) stamps.
As I was also tempted to buy some new Snowman papers for Sasha's buddies' cards (and in the end they all got Mr Men & Little Miss cards), I felt that poor Snowman feels lonely and needs a loving family, so I added a wife and two kids next to him.

Birthday card



I just fell in love with this chubby face (and hope it wasn't too cold in the studio, lol). Makes me wonder what happened to this child, what was his/her life.
Each photo tells a story, but some of them are stories lost in time.
BTW, I've been recycling again: this printed butterfly with beads was a part of textile tag from a River Island blouse (or was it trousers? not sure. But I knew I'd use it one day.)

Glitzy Something challenge/Flowergirl purse



Stamp Something is running a Glitzy challenge. As any girl, I love a bit of sparkle, lol.
I did a similar purse some time in June but this time I changed the colours and added blitzy-glitzy sparkle bits to flowers. I painted stamped images with acrylic paints. The purse itself was a Boots freebie.
