Not a lot of blogging or crafting for me over the last 2-3 weeks as we moved house last week. My Craft Room is still in boxes but I was able to make my sample for the Clarity "Winter" Challenge before we moved.
My little bit of inspiration is a card and bauble to send to someone special. A Xmas card and gift in one.
I so enjoyed making the bauble as it was something a little different for me. Painted with Grandma's Teacup paint (I love that name) then gold embossing and lots of masking to make the little picture in the O of joy. For the bauble on the card I drew around the MDF bauble onto blue card and cut it out.
There's such a lot of inspiration on the blog this month and I hope you have time to enter for the chance to win the Claritystamp Voucher of £50.
I'm off to the NEC next week to catch up with lots of Crafty friends and the Clarity Team.
Yvonne, what a clever and versatile idea, this would be a wonderful gift. The blue in super. Lovely.
