Before we get to the card, I am sure you are all dying to know what the flavour of my lollipop was this month !!,,, Chillin Pink Lemonade ,,,, yum !! I really enjoy these lollipops while perusing the contents of the box ,,, a monthly ritual :-)


I REALLY love this kit !! such a pretty stamp set and some fabulous sentiment stamps in there too. The papers and embellies are gorgeous too :-)

The camera really picked up the 'shine' ! the shine splatter really isn't as 'in your face' IRL, it is a much more subtle shimmer :-) I love how this has turned out ! I can almost smell those roses :-)

ABC 'J' for Jolly old Elf Challenge

Hi all :-) Did you know that there are only another 224 days left to Christmas !!! yep !! not long to wait :-)

This fortnight on the ABC Christmas Challenge it is the lovely Carissa's turn to choose the theme ,,,,

'J' for Jolly Old Elf 

I love the series of Elves designed by the lovely Mo Manning and I couldn't resist using this cute Little Elf Ava, I bought this as a digi but it is also available in rubber :-)


I  thought I would make her look like she was swinging on a star ,,, does she ? :-)

Ooh ! I have to tell you how I made the starry background ,, I mixed some white embossing paste with Simon's Audrey Blue Ink and a dollop of glitter bead gel and used a falling stars stencil. It is so pretty and sparkly IRL :-)
