Christmas Challenges

Having had a great start to my challenge entering I've decided to have another go...this time using a fantabulous little image from Sew Many Cards, thank you Jeri.

The Challenge this week is Sew Many Challenges #23  'Christmas in August'.

I've also had a go at sewing on card using the little provo craft sewing machine my hubby bought me a few years back.  Its another of those items we buy and put to one side promising to use it, but then we never do.  After seeing the gorgeous creations on Sew Many Cards I decided to dust off the box, get out the machine and blooming well have a go!!!!  AND...it worked.  I actually expected the battery to be dead but it wasn't.  It took a few attempts but then it came together.  Thanks SMC for the inspiration.

Hope you like...




















I'm also going to enter this in The Creative Cottage Challenge #21 - Christmas

    You did a great job. I love the big light bulbs they look like they are shiny. I love little Eris with the string of lights wrapped around its trunk. Great job on coloring and putting your card together.
