Hi there, here is your sketch for this week at ICSketches its a cracker.

I thought I'd make a start on the dreaded Christmas cards, I always leave it to late and end up rushing them and not enjoying making them at all which is really defeating the object as I craft to help chill out.

I used a Pollycraft image, coloured with copics, and i really can't remember the make of the papers.

Tally Ho!

Hiya, someone asked me to make a card for her daughter that is opening an ecquestrian and clothing shop called Tally Ho! this week. So i thought this LOTV stamp would be perfect. I coloured it with copics, used K&Co papers, prima flowers Dovecraft brad, ribbon and a horse shoe charm. The letters are a Go Create die cut alphabet.

hope you have a good weekend, not quite sure what I'm doing yet it depends on the weather, but I really fancy going to The Hobby house on Sat afternoon, Hubby and his mate are going fishing so once I've finished work at dinner I have the afternoon to myself. I'm visiting my parents on Sunday, so I guess I wont have any time left for ironing this weekend lol.
