Christmas Past

 Hi Everybody,

This is a series of cards that I made for Christmases in the past and these are already in my Blogger account and so I can use them until I get my computer fixed.

I am not able to do videos as yet because I cannot get the filmed ones onto my PC to edit them and then upload to YouTube.

Such a pain .....

Many of them have been created using items that where free with magazines and some of these may have even been passed on to you as the Friday Freebies.

This one was so cute and I did make quite a few cards with this for family and friends.

I stamped the images and then coloured them 

in with water colours.

Both cards are A6 size and although they have layers to them they will fit into a standard envelope, and save on postage.

One of  my favourite stamp sets was "The Twelve Days Of Christmas"  and I gave a set of them away on the blog a long time ago.

This was another favourite and this was a die that cut the tree out for you but again it was a long time ago.

I don't remember which magazines they came with  but all would have been a really good give away and it as been nice to look back over these older cards.

I hope you have enjoyed this little look back also

More tomorrow ...

Stacey Kowbel - Winner

 Hi Everybody,

I am so sorry I have not been around this week but as I said I have had major PC problems. My computer asked if I wanted to regain some space on my hard drive and I said “yes”  but it wiped everything else from the desktop. My editing programs … all my photos … all my videos and even my emails. 

I have tried to get some of them back with a little success but my editing suite is gone. I bought the full edition a few years ago and now I cannot get in touch with the company to see if they can help, so it looks like I may have to buy it all over again. 

It also tells me that some of my stuff is not compatible with Windows 10 and that my PC will not accept Windows 11 so I may have to buy a new computer and I really don’t want to have to do that. This has been such a pain and if Griff was here he would know what to do. 

Anyway on to the draw which has been done and the name today is 

Stacey Kowbel 

Would you please email me with your postal address to 

christina@card-making-magic.com

and I will get the pack in the post to you this week. I will also tuck into the magazine a little glue bottle pin so be sure to look for that and please let me know when you have them safely.

More tomorrow…… hopefully

Jenny Hurley - Winner

Hi Everybody,

 You will need to be patient with me for a while as something has happened to my computer and I seem to have lost all my work. All my videos have disappeared and I can't find the Movie Maker programme that I bought ages ago and so at the moment I am stuck and I do not know how to resolve the problem.  

I have tried to fix it but I get totally lost to say the least. I am very annoyed with my self and frustrated with the computer.

But I have done the draw for the fabulous Christmas pack offered on Friday which I am sure you will enjoy playing with. The name this week is

Jenny Hurley
