First CCC of 2014



Hi all you wonderful peeps! Hope everyone has had a brilliant Christmas and New Year!! and I know that everyone is probably sick of looking at Christmas cards LOL but it's the first of our Christmas Card Clubs Challenge of 2014, we make our cards all year long so we don't had a mad rush in December:) which I think is a great idea. Anyway its the lovely Sylvie's theme this time and she has chosen a really easy one for us to get back into the new year with 'Anything Goes'. So I've used this lovely Penny Black snowman stamp that I've had for years and I love and decided to go for different Christmassy colours. I apologise for the quality of the photo but the sky's are miserable today it's actually lovely shades of green. Well tree is down, decs are down, bungalow all done yesterday and now I'm off to take 'his lordship' for a nice walk and some fresh air. Take care everyone and lots of hugglessssssssssss Sue xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hi Sue,
me wonderful little blogging matey.
Love this card almost as much as the one you sent me. The colours are so fab, my little Queen of stckles. I am very envious of those tree dies, must get some when we go to the NEC. lol.
It won't be too long now.
My decs are still up as DH hasn't the energy to take them down or get into the loft or the shed for the ladder for the loft. My children would do it but I don't want them here to catch the dreaded lurge. lol.
Have the most wonderful day, and give Olliekins my BIGGEST NEW YEAR HUG from his Fairy Godmother.
Lots of crafty love. Fairy Godmother Jenny L.

Fabulous image Sue and I just love that colour. I could do with borrowing one of the hat and scarf sets. I've been helping John saw up some wood and it's flipping freezing! Love nd hugs Christine xx

Hi there matey - I just love this shade of green! As for the image, I can see three members of the crafterteers there - or is it my imagination??? There's only one thing I would like you to do for me please - can you tell me how many blobs there on on it??? Now don't be like that matey - I was only askin'. ROFL!

Hope Olliebabe had a wonderful trot outside. Blossom has decided that outside is not the place to be now so we are having to get her to 'play' inside - she goes bloomin' mad for 5 minutes and then drops off to sleep! She is also eating us out of house and home, building up her energy for the summer! What a life they have eh!

Well at least we now have our first Christmas creation for 2014 - here's to many more.

Hugs to you and Paul (mwah to Ollie)

Oh Sue...this is so lovely! I am drooling ove rhte pearl dots and like Sue, wondering how many perfect pearls you made. I wanted to give this technique a try on my card too but decided that it is probably hard to keep them all even so will try it first on one for the kiddies...then I don't have to shw it on my blog if I mess it up!!!

Love your colours for this card and the lashing of stickles...how I love those too Your snowpeople are sweeties and do look like 3 of our gang...which 3 could they be...

Off to google the Range...for my next trip...lol

Karen Petitt said...

Darnell said...

What a beautiful Christmas card, Sue! I love that minty green color!! Here I was telling Scrappymo that she won the prize for first Christmas card of the year, but I didn't know it was today for the first Christmas Club Challenge of the year! You are all very on top of it and an inspiration to me!! Hugs, Darnell

Peanut said...

Oh Sue!!! Love that soft colour. Just the right touch of warmth on a wintery scene. It's so perfect. You're lucky Ollie is a good lad. I hope Peanut follows suit! Have a great week, my friend.

Delightful snowmen in their fuzzy green. And wow, did your hand get tired with all the pearls? That is so awesome. Loved all the bling. That's a really beautiful shade of green that you chose & loved the shimmer & snow on your tree too. Great card for the first CCC (Which I missed the deadline! Boo-hoo.) TFS - Happy New Year, and Hugs
