Getting ready for Santa!

This is my midway post for

STAMPING SENSATIONS

where the option theme is getting ready for Christmas.

We have two lovely prizes up for grabs so be sure and join us!

I have made a twisted easel card this time,

using the Gift of Giving stamp set.

The images has been coloured using my blends.

I love how it folds flat for posting but looks pretty neat when displayed.

I do have a video tutorial for this card free with my newsletter, and I show you how

to get two tags from your cut offs, so bonus!!

Slip & Slide Fun Fold Card

I named this card a slip & slide as I don't know what else to call it.

When you open the card it literally slips and slides 😂

to reveal a mini card.

That mini card then opens to reveal the message.

Simply close and it all slides back in effortlessly!

I have a tutorial free with my midmonth newsletter.

They are super sporty boys!!

And our youngest Grandson Finbar who has autism,

went with his little class to the Arts Festival.

His class sang a song together and they won the cup for their age group!!

Proud Granny and Granda for sure!!
