Half Term Holidays!!


The schools have all broken up for the half term holidays now and I have at last found some time to make a few more Christmas cards.  The first is using a Wine Label as the backing, I love the effect these create, thank you so much Jacqueline.  The main image is the Winter Town stamp from Hero Arts which I have stamped with distress ink and them spritzed with Shimmer spray to create the snow effect.


The second is just a CAS card but using some gems from Hero Arts so perfect for their current challenge.

In the South of England we are all bracing ourselves for a big storm tonight, lots of high winds and rain, luckily I won't have to go out tomorrow!!  Hope you are having better weather today!

Sally, these are two fabulous Christmas cards - love them! Hope you have lots of fun and inky times over your half term holidays! I was thinking of you yesterday when I heard the worst of the storm was to hit the UK, I hope it wasn't as bad as expected.
