Country View Crafts Challenges - Christmas

It's Chriiiiiissssstmas!!!!  I cannot believe we are in December already.  But, I do love Christmas. This month's challenge is Christmas themed.  Here is my first project:

This is a shaker card and so much fun to make.  I used the following projects:

Sizzix Tim Holtz Harvey

Sizzix Tim Holtz Layered Plaid 

I find Harvey so much fun to use and cannot stop creating different versions of him.  Pop over to the Challenge blog to join in with this month's challenge.  I would love to see you join in with the challenge.

I will be back later in the month to share my second project with you.  Wishing you all a very Happy Christmas and a Peaceful and Happy New Year.

A Very Happy Birthday

Today Dan is celebrating a 'big' birthday.  Where the time has gone, I will never know.  We have been celebrating his bog day for the last few weeks and still have more plans to come.

So, there we have it.  A simple but colourful card to celebrate a special day!
