Well, I failed miserably on Last Years Resolutions, so I am not making any for 2017. I should know by now, that best made plans often go out the window and the 2016 ones certainly did.
One of the big changes I had in my life last year, was a change of Job. Still with the same emergency service but a more challenging role, new location and hopefully the prospect of qualifications at the end. On the down side is that I have less time to craft due to the longer travel time and my brian being pickled with all the new information it is taking on board. When I have been making cards, that have usually been quick cards and were not good enough to blog.
Over the festive season, I have had chance to relax and play at my table which I have really enjoyed and missed. Hopefully, going forward, I can find a balance between work, study and play.
Anyway, enough prattling on, this is a card I have made following a few challenges. The hedgehogs are Penny Black clear stamps with I coloured and added some Stickles to their scarves. The backing paper is scrap from an old Papermania paperback, sentiment is a Hunkydory one and snowflake is a Sizzix diecut. Tools used was my snowflake embossing folder. The challenges covered are:-
- Crafty Purple Frog -Winter Blues
- Shopping Our Stash - Winter Wonderland
- Penny Black Saturday - Winter/Christmas
- Simon Says Stamp - Anything Goes
- Craftyhazelnuts's Christmas - Anything Christmas
