The night before.....


Couldn't resist this digi! I am feeling relatively pleased with myself as I have nearly finished the 'Cardathon'. Half are in the post and I have written a few more and there's half a dozen drying here on the desk. I wasn't going to make a lot but I wanted to use up some of the stash before I pack the Christmas stuff away for another year, so have made more than I intended to this year.
Have enjoyed the card making this year more than I thought I would once I got motivated - sometimes I feel pressured into sending hand made cards as everyone knows I make them and I get a bit paranoid thinking that they might be thinking - 'oh she didn't make me one'......
Anyway have made as many as I usually do and have sent a mixture of hand made and shop bought!(Or rather I WILL be sending a mixture once I've finished!)

Coloured 'reading mouse' with promarkers and used Basic Grey Jovial papers. Played about a bit with my scalloped nesties too, used a Martha Stewart punch for the border and coloured the card candy with promarkers to match the background paper. The whole thing layered onto red card.
Challenges-
Stamp Something - Digi Day
Allsorts Challenge - Light up the Night (use a candle or similar)
2 Sisters - Twas the Night before Christmas
