Season's Greetings...

 

The Sistahs are Back in Town!

Edna and the sisterhood are back from an extended break and are getting ready to be super snarky in 2024 to celebrate our 10th anniversary!

Our final challenge for 2023 is a special one, as we remember 

our much loved sistah JESSI.  

Jessi was a founding member of the sisterhood, and it was a joy to get to know her, along with the other sistahs when I joined the gang in 2016. Sadly, the world lost this creative and beautiful soul in December 2018. 

We'd love you to help us celebrate Jessi by creating a project inspired by her art. You can find some crafty inspiration on her blog HERE.

I've always liked this card Jessi made; you can find it by visiting Jessi's blog here. 

And here's my Inspired by Jessi creation. 

I haven't used Art Impressions Giant Cake Set for a while, so it was fun to get this one inked up once again. 

The Sisterhood very much hope you'll come play along and help us remember our sweet, funny and much-missed buddy, Jessi. Also, the sistahs have a new teamie... I wonder who it can be??!!

In the Deep Midwinter...

 

Happy Winter Solstice to you all.

Thankfully, it's fairly mild where I am today as we have no central heating at the moment! Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! I am currently wearing four layers.

I'm delighted to be joining the fun at LCD today with a fun card featuring a fabulous Jane's Doodles image which I've stamped, coloured and paper pieced. 

This was very fiddly to make, but great fun. I'm sure this is how modern reindeer cope with a deep midwinter.

I used up quite a few little bits of pretty patterned paper for this card just so I could play along in The Snippets Playground Challenge! 

Hope you're having a happy Christmas eve - eve - eve! 

Christmas Kickstart Challenge #81 - Reminder

The Holiday Season is in full swing and in 10 days time it'll be Christmas Day!

It's the traditional December Challenge over at Christmas Kickstart as we're playing:

Challenge #81 - If it's Christmassy, Link it Up!

Just link up any Christmas cards you've just created. Yes, it really is as simple as that. If you're stuck for a theme why not look back through the past year of inspiration and fun at Christmas Kickstart where our elfin muses have once again done us proud!

That cute 'n' chunky VLVS kitty is making another appearance on a Christmas card. A friend bought this card from me a week or so ago, but has since told me she's too worried to send it for fear of offending someone! I did offer her the chance to swap it for a different card, but she said she likes it and may keep it just for herself! 

And still on the theme of cats, here's a Katzelkraft mini stamp that always makes me smile...

Time for one more?

Another feline favourite is this lil' dude from Carabelle, who I believe have announced that they are closing down. What a pity this is. Stampers Grove have some great Carabelle bargains on offer at the moment. 

I think one of my New Year resolutions better be to make less cat cards. However, I doubt if this will be a resolution that will last! 😸😸😸

Rudolph final Random Raffle Prize for 2023 is a cutie.

   

I hope you'll come and join the fun at Christmas Kickstart for one last time this year!

This is the final challenge for 2023 and it's our traditional nice and easy,
