We are so blue and white and excited at Winter Wonderland this week!

This is quite a long post so do settle down for a cuppa whilst you play!
You should have joined me from Sally's Blog if not go to the beginning at Winter Wonderland

Winter Wonderland will be 2 on 30 May and we are celebrating by having a week long blog hop. We have 11 sponsors this week, yes, that’s right 11!!! But that’s not all because each member of the DT has some candy to give away too. Both teams are playing along this week plus little ole me who joins us at the end of each month so that’s another 11 prizes to be won.

We would like to have as many prize winners as possible so if your name is drawn for more than one prize we will draw again. That means 22 lucky people will win a prize this week. With so many prize winners we won’t be choosing a top 3 just for this week.


All you have to do to join in the fun is:

•· Play along with this week’s easy and fun challenge
•· Be a follower of Winter Wonderland
•· Visit each member of the DT and collect a letter•· Leave them a comment and enter their candy draw•· Rearrange the letters to make a two word Christmas Carol
•· E-mail the answer to Winter Wonderland
Of course you don’t have to join in the blog hop if you don’t want to. You can still enter this week’s challenge and be in with the chance of winning one of the 11 prizes this week but why miss out on doubling your chance of winning.

My wonderful Sponsor is the amazing Simon says Stamp who have the most fabulous range of crafting goodies. So someone on the hop will win $15 from Simon says Stamp and someone else will win a mystery Christmas present of a stamp and ribbon from me

To enter my candy you will need to leave me a comment and enter your blog link below. The letter you need to collect from me is N

Here is my blue and white card using the wonderful Hero Arts Magic of Christmas set. Click on the Simon says stamp logo to go straight to the page in the shop you can buy this stamp.

I do love this set which is perfect for all your Christmas cards this year!
I am the last person in the hop so now you need to return to the Winter Wonderland blog to send your email answer - after you have left me a comment of course!
Hope you enjoyed the fun x

Excitement is brewing!

Over at Winter Wonderland - we are 2 this year! Thrilled to be part of the celebrations I can tell you. Gorgeous art, loads of prizes and so lots of winners too. Stop by tomorrow when all will be revealed!
This month my Christmas card sessions have revolved around using leftovers. We all like to be thrifty so I tried to show a simple payout which will use up bits, is quick to do but still looks good.
This one is my favourite although the white space shouts at me every time I am determined to keep the less is more feel lol.
The die cuts are all Tim Holtz and all are wonderful to work with.
As you can see some of the papers are very old papermania ones where I have just had the odd sheet left. The beauty of cards 1 and 2 is they will also post with a normal stamp - always a bonus! Next month we are playing with Tim Holtz and monochrome cards - cant wait!
Have a great day and don't forget to stop by tomorrow and find out what the Winter Wonderland fun is all about!
