Nearly There

Morning all,
Well Christmas is almost upon us! For me the big question is will my new cooker arrive on Friday as promised!!!! My kitchen is still not complete but hopefully on Friday all will be well. Then it's a mad dash to get the house cleaned up and all signs of  the building dust removed.
Well over a CRAFT today we have a new challenge. This week it is a sketch designed by our former DT member Kevin.



As usual we have several generous sponsors,

I chose this gorgeous image from Sassy Studio
Masquerade _ 1


She is so pretty I just loved colouring her.

The image is coloured with Promarkers.
The papers are from Stamping All Day
The flowers are from Wild orchids
The lace is from Wild orchids and the ribbon from Hobby Craft.

Enjoy taking time out from all the hectic days ahead to do some crafting.

Have a Peaceful Christmas

Non Traditional Colours

Good Morning, Peeps,
   I hope you are all safe and managing to keep warm.  It's Monday again and as always we have a great new challenge at INCY WINCY DESIGNS

Our fantastic sponsor is one we all adore



And the challenge is

Christmas - Non Traditional Colours


During the summer I read all three of the Fifty Shades Books and like millions of others I loved them.
So when Krista drew this little beauty I just had to buy her!



As you can see the DP's are grey - they were originally blue and were from Stamping All Day. They are stunning whichever colour you change them to.
The warm grey is part of the co-ordinations range.
The image as always is coloured with Promarkers.
The ribbon is one I have had since last year and is one I have taken out and put back many times because I don't want to use it all, LOL.
The sentiment was made on my PC.
The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and the pearls are from my stash.

Please stop by my fellow teamies blogs, they have created the most beautiful projects to inspire you.

I would like to enter this into the following challenges



Have fun - look forward to visiting your blogs.
