MCH DT card - Little Belinda

Hi there folks, hope you have all had a lovely day and are all ok. I've spent the day catching up on some DT stuff and then had a couple of hours playing with my Slice. I got it when they first came out but since I got my Big Shot I have really neglected it. So I have had a play and I love it again. I have it all set up on my desk now, so hopefully I will use it more.

Anyhoo! I've made a card using some gorgeous new goodies from My Crafty Heart.

A Gem of a Challenge - Kraft at Christmas

Good afternoon folks, wayhay! the sun is still shining here, just perfect as we are off to a BBQ later.

I've had a busy morning, done loads of washing and a food shop. Tesco was super busy :o( but I did manage to get myself a bargain. I saw some large tubs with lids, with distressed union jacks on a couple of weeks ago, they were £6 and although I like them, I didn't fancy paying that much. (yep! I'm a bit frugal lol!) Well they had them today for £1.99 so I got a few. Ooh! I love a bargain, they will be perfect to replace some of the boxes in my craftroom that are falling to bits.

I know, I'm waffling... anyhoo! over at A Gem of a Challenge it's time for another challenge and our lovely Jenny has chosen a really great theme for us to play with. Kraft at Christmas.
