Well...Hello There.....

Hello All....yes its been a while...a long while...lol.... but I'm back with a little card for this weeks Less is More Challenge...White on White...White Christmas...

 
I used a beautiful Memory Box die that I've had for ages but this is the first time I've used it...the background is just a snowy embossing folder and the sentiment is stamped in silver.  I've added tiny gems in different colours to highlight the tree.  (I hope that's allowed!).  Do pop over and check out the DT gorgeous creations....
 
Well, there's been a lots going on here with me...I had a job..(yay!)....then I didn't have a job...(boo!!)... Mums Probate still on going...just wish it would all hurry up...and I had my craft room redecorated and re fitted....I chose white as I wanted it to feel light and airy. 
These pics were taken just after the units were put together...
 
 
 
Now filled stash...not very tidy..I've been making...lol...
 
 


I love it now....still needs one more unit with drawers for my Magnolia stamps and then that's it.   Good old Ikea...lol....
 
I also have been busy in the kitchen this morning....we have a glut of apples so I made some Apple Jam.....its a first for me and I'm really pleased how its turned out....think toffee apples with a hint of spice...its really yummy...
 
 
Yummy on crumpets....lol...
 
Anyway...I have to get on...I have a craft fair next Saturday so lots of Christmas cards to make...
 
have a lovely weekend
Hugs
Jan...xxx

  5. What a delightful die. I too have been busy in the kitchen. I picked mulberries this morning and am baking some pies and trying to come up with other ideas for the rest of the mulberries over the next few weeks
