Christmas!

                 I have had time to play today, this doesn't happen very often of late.

I do try to make a few Christmas cards throughout the year but things have slowed up lately. I have started looking after my grand-daughter two days a week which means an overnight stay. It has all been fun looking after a 15 month old again, tiring but fun.

So here is a card to add to the Christmas collection.

It is Brenda who is hosting the challenge this fortnight. 

Our sponsor is 

This fortnight's challenge theme is to showcase a project using 

Your Favourite kind of Stitching

(eg the real deal, fake it with stitched dies or drawn doodle-style).

You MUST explain WHY it is your favourite.

I like to use dies or doodling for my stitching. My sewing machine is stashed in a cupboard and is a struggle to get out, so I take the easy option. To be honest the                               dies give me a straighter line than if I was sewing.

My tip is to use Liquid Pearls to accent areas on my card. They are not too fussy but give a little interest and texture to a plain area. I also like them for the centre of flowers.
