christmas sack....

Morning peeps yesterday it was Ethans 4th birthday so we popped round for jelly and cheesy wotsits for his party tea, yummy and I managed to finish off the wallpapering in my sons room so I only have the painting of two walls......yay.
Its my turn to to post something over at Studio 12 blog so I thought I'd show you the little mini pressie sack I made, I enlarged the sweet gingerbread image from the Picknix Gingerbread twist CD, using gimp and then printed it onto transfer paper which I then ironed onto calico, stitched on some buttons and added a bow to complete......just needs some pressies putting inside it now.

Christmas Tag........

Afternoon peeps hope you are all well, yesterday we had our yearly conference at work and that meant a serious amount of chocolate tasting all day.......diet starts again today. We got to see the whole Christmas range before it hits the shops, so I thought it was apt to share with you a tag I have made for Studio 12 featuring the new Gingerbread Twist Cd, I layered up part of the image of the sweet gingerbread man and added a sting bow, the torn background paper, label and tape are also images off the same Cd.

For my card I chose elements from the Gingerbread Twist CD, crammed with lovely shabby papers and sweet images to get you in the mood for Christmas, I used Gimp to layer up the image and sentiment on top of the scrummy striped paper, printed it off twice and then cut out the gingerbread man and layered on top of the main image for added dimension, added glitter, stitching, buttons and a bow to complete.

Have a fun filled day, I normally clean through before I go on holiday

but this year I have decided to decorate my sons room so I'm just

about to turf him out of bed to get some more painting done.

........will I ever learn not to take on big projects, because I will still

have to clean through cos of all the mess I've made......lol
