Hi everybody!Does anyone else feel that christmas went by too fast?Can't believe in a few days we'll be bringing in the new year!Well last night was the first decent sleep i've had in about 4 days due to a stinking cold which is finally going.So now that i feel much better i have made a few cards with some of my new stamps!Well this week CCT has an 'open theme' which ive made two cards for as could'nt decide which one to enter lol!The first uses cross stitch tilda coloured with whispers,cut out and put onto card with 3d foam pads,the papers were free with a mag and so were the flowers and an anita's peel-off.Gosh what a cheap card that was to make lol.
