EEEkkkk exciting news ~ Crafty Ribbons

So Super Excited to say.......

I am now part of the Crafty Ribbons DT

I have always loved Ali's lovely Ribbons and a few years back made various ribbon samples for shows etc ,so it was an honour to become part of the team.
The only problem I can see is what ribbons to choose for my upcoming projects, Oh My drool, drool there are so many to choose from, I have so many ideas I had to start my own notebook.

I have my Granddaughter staying (again) for a few weeks , we just love crafting together, so I let her choose what we should make. We made this on Tuesday after a visit on Monday to the safari park where she had spotted Reindeers so this was quite an apt make.
Using a couple of files from SIL store I cut out the bag and the gift card holder and Felicity glued them together. We added some googly eyes . Felicity made two little red bows and stuck them on , and then adhered the little golden bells.
I attached the ribbon bag handle.

 Once the holly was stuck on I gave it a shine of glossy accents.

And this is the lushness we used from Crafty Ribbons
Bows - 7mm Country check
Bag strap and Gift card holder strip - Christmas Owl Ribbon
Button - Basics 2 Go Buttons

Whooohooooo Yes it's that time of the month again when my Simply Cards & Papercrafts arrives through the letter box.
I love nothing more than sitting with my morning cuppa admiring the freebies and reading through the mag *** this time though , I let out a squeal as I had noticed one of my cards had been published- I was absolutly thrilled to pieces as those that know me , know that although I have been card making for a few years now , stamping is really quite new to me , I used to shy away from stamps now I LOVE them!***
