Decorating the Tree

I was having a go at the Hot Pink and green colour combo I've seen a lot of this Christmas.  I'm not too sure I've managed to pull it off.  I'm not too sure about the image either, I can't decide if the rough look to it is a good thing or not . . . 

Maybe I'm just having one of those days.  I was just thinking yesterday how mild this winter has been so far, then that horrible storm blew all the clouds away this morning and I've resorted to pulling my big thick jacket out from the back of the wardrobe.  Oh well, I guess the mild whether was nice while it lasted!

Country Companions Anniversary

I love Country Companions!  They're so cute and versatile.  After the latest Winter Wishes release I spent some time on my fur colouring technique.   I've found that the best way to colour the hedgehogs spikes is with lots and lots of little dashes and very little blending.  I actually left my colouring for a minute between each layer to let it dry a little and stop the next layer blending so much.  I'm pretty pleased with the end result.

Christmas Kraft Gift

I wasn't expecting much from this simple little card but actually I'm pretty pleased with it.  I think it's the glitter glue and the silver dots, like snow.  One of these days I will learn to take my time when doing them and actually achieve dots instead of dashes!!!

Toffee Apple Treat

Hmmmmm . . . For me the autumn festivals are all about the food, ginger bread, parkin cake, pie and peas, jacket potatoes roasted in the embers of the bonfire oh and bonfire toffee!!  There's a tin of treacle sat on my shelf on the hopes that I'll have time to make up a batch this year . . . Just the thought of it make's my mouth water!

So today's card is a little fat free celebration of the seasons yummy goodies!!
