Beautiful Baubles Launch

 Hi Everybody,

I am so glad that people are now able to leave comments again and I am relieved to have you back again.

But don't forget that because the comments can now come through as anonymous I have no way of knowing who you are.

Please leave your name especially for the Friday Freebies so that you can be identified if you are the winner.

Today I will be with Lou Collins launching the new Beautiful Baubles. This is a fabulous set and everything matches. The papers can be cut out with the bauble dies which makes things a lot easier and quicker if you need to make cards in a hurry.

Please Join us for some great prizes at 12.30 today

Playing with glue ...

Hi Everybody,

So after tidying my desk I found these flowers lying around and decided to use them on a really simple card.

I also had some coloured glue in my glue box that was going hard and I used that to trail some worm like creatures on my background.

While it was still wet I sprinkled it with gold glitter and then let it dry. 

Then before adding in the flowers and leaves I stamped the sentiment at the top. The panel has been added to a top folded card to make a quick and simple design.

This one has just had some glue dripped horizontally on a panel and sprinkled with clear glitter and gold sequins and allowed to dry.

I stamped the sentiment and rounded the corners off and added it to the base card for another quick and easy card.

I can't really say that I like either of them but at least it got to use up some of the stuff on my desk.

Don't forget to join me tomorrow on Craft Stash Facebook Live with the new collection Beautiful Baubles

Who is the boss ???

 Hi Everybody,

This picture shows just how far we have come in the developing relationship between Ella and her doggy friends.

Ruby in the back is my Cocker Spaniel and the white dog in the front is Dougal my daughters Cockapoo.

And smack bang in the middle of them both is my new kitten Ella. She is twelve weeks old, feisty, tiny and definitely rules the roost.

Both dogs almost six years old and are so much bigger than her, and yet they are scared of her, and when she turns to face them they run away. 

It's quite funny really to watch how she has learned that she can chase them off. 

But in quieter moments they drink from the same dish, although not at the same time and when Dougal has gone home again Ella and Ruby will sit together.

Until that is Ella puts out a paw to touch Ruby, and then Ruby gets up and walks off.
But slowly we are getting there and I still hope that eventually they will be friends.

Winner

Hi Everybody,

I really do not know what is happening on the comment front but I have had several emails from people who cannot leave comments any more. This could be something to do with Google and the way they now operate or it cold be the blog operators hem selves. I only know that I don't think it is something that I have done that is preventing these comments being shown.

However having said that I have now changed somethings and I see that it is now allowing anonymous comments to be shown. That makes it even more important to leave your FULL NAME if you want to win the Friday Freebie as there is no way I can sort out the number of anonymous comments that are now there.

So I will remind you again that if there is no full name shown,  not  just first names, initials or nicknames,  then your comment will not be entered into the draw. 
Thank you so much to those who have complied and if you haven't then you will not win so check carefully what you have put down on your comments

On to the winner this week and the name drawn at random is ...

Cathie Weary

Your comment has come through as anonymous so thank you for leaving you name.
Please email me with your postal address to

christina@card-making-magic.com

and I will get it in the post to your straight away and I hope you enjoy playing with it..
