Well we can't complain about the weather - how glorious has it been, although i'm not sure if it's the best weather to sand down and paint a kitchen !!, all equipment is now in and working, yipee. We are taking son out today to make an easter bonnet and have some fun with his friend Chloe.
I was fortunately sent this image, by a fellow blogger ages ago and as i loved the ABC Christmas Challenge H for Hotspot so much i decided to make another card and add some embossing to it too.

Delightful card - great combo of those challenges - thanks for joining in my CHNC challenge 17 - hope to see you again soon. x
Looks like you're getting set for Christmas then Sam!!
So pleased you have finally got the Scrolling Along stamp - I'm sure you'll find it useful. I know that I wouldn't be without mine!!
Not too sure at the moment if I'll be able to make it to The Glitter Pot's weekend so keep an eye on my blog as I wouldn't want you to make a special trip to see me and then find I'm not there!!
Hope you've been enjoying this gorgeous weather. xx
