Tomorrow Harrison goes back to school, after a busy half term, where he has been to a 'Fun Food Academy', Drusillas (a play area, come small animal centre), Rugby (twice), a fun day at the Leisure Centre and on Friday night we went for a talk by 'Steve Backshall' (one of Harrison's hero's, the other being Bear Grylls) - the Deadly 60 guy.
I can't believe it's the first Sunday in November, which means a new Challenge over at Penny Black And More and this month it's 'Anything Stamped For Christmas' and as usual we have some fabby sponsors too :
Penny Black
Crafts U Love
Crafty Ribbons
And one lucky person using a Penny Black image will be picked to be Guest Designer for next month, so pop over to Penny Black And More, check out the other amazing inspiration the very talented team have come up with and join in the fun - but please do remember, you can use any image you like, except Digi's
This was a particularly hard image for me to finish, as i started colouring it in, in the morning of the day, we had to have Whisper put to sleep : Penny Black - 'Santa Quartet / 1273K / 1998', the papers are my favourite collection (so much so, i bought a magazine last year, as they were giving another pack away) : Bo Bunny - 'Silver And Gold Collection', the sentiment and the pearls have been embossed with : WOW - 'Metallic Gold Rich Embossing Powder', the sentiment is : Whimsy Stamps - 'Holiday Mini Postage Stamps', the twine is : Glissen Gloss - 'Sparkle'
The Challenges I Would Like To Enter Are :
Sweet Sketch 2 - where they are up to Sketch : 'SSW2 -73'
Winter Wonderland - where the Challenge is 'Anything As Long As It's Christmas'
Fab N' Funky - where Challenge No: 279 is 'Anything As Long As It's Christmas'

What a fun image, fab card
Love the quartet of Santa's Sam, they have such a lovely vintage feel to them yet still work so nicely with the traditional seasonal colours.
Hope you have a good Sunday.
