Simon Says Stamp

Hiya bloggers, hope you are all nearly ready for Santa coming, I have finished all my cards and posted them out, I had to miss a few people out due to lack of time and for that I am sorry..........I am going to try and be more organised next year, hopefully things will be a little better for us in 2010.

Anyway I am hoping it is safe to post this card now as it should have arrived safely in Scotland as it is for my wonderful in-laws......................however, I rushed to finish this card that I have had sat half made for a week, popped it in the envelope and took it to the post office and waved goodbye to it..................I then realised that I had forgotten to write in it..........Doh!!!! I am so losing my marbles........i was rushing to get out the door on Saturday morning though in the midst of our heating breaking down and a million and one errands to run.......LOL...........good job my in-laws know what I am like................some would take offence to that, but that's just little old me.....He He!!!!

All of the supplies used on this Easel card are Magnolia apart from the Merry Christmas sentiment which is a Penny Black and the flower, fronds and brads are from my stash. Sweet Tilda has been coloured with Promarkers, I hope my in-laws like it.

I am entering this card into the Simon Says Stamp challenge which this week is 'Merry christmas'

Wishing you all a great christmas & New year

Hugs

Sarah
