Just a little post to promote a fellow crafters new redesigned blog -  the crafty blog of A Paper Fairy.  I attended a workshop that Lidiya was presenting and it truly gave me the inspiration to design my own cards and start my own blog.  Lidiya has some beautiful creations and if you want to take a look, you can see for yourself at: http://the-paperfairy.blogspot.com/.

This is the Christmas card i am entering:

Thanks for looking, Best wishes, Jill :)

Seasons Greetings!

Hello everyone, hope you are all having fun. Just made another Christmas card and still not finished yet! This time i thought i would go more traditional (i.e a Christnas tree) but i think it has quite a trendy look to it. I was inspired by Connie's tree at http://inkspiredtreasures.com and she kindly uploaded a template of the tree onto her fabulous website, so thank you Connie.

Today i am entering my card into the following challenges:
