Hello lovely peeps & Happy Boxing Day!
I hope you all had a lovely day yesterday and Santa was kind to you :)
We had a lovely day here, it was so nice to spend time all together, everyone got thoroughly spoilt, we had a good giggle, hubs cooked a delicious dinner & Jode & I watched the film Tangled after lunch, I always find that horse hilarious, my stomach hurt from laughing so much, & Jode's hurt from laughing at me because I was in hysterics lol. The only downside was Gareth had to go to work at 2pm so I very kindly ate his portion of chocolate log & cream for him lol.
Today is new challenge day at

ANYTHING GOES
Today's creations from the DT are a little different than usual as us DT girlies did a secret Santa gift swap and made a gift and also sent some crafty goodies to one of our teamies. My gift was for our lovely Lols so my Magnolia's had a week off and I inked up one of Lols favourite little mice instead :)

My gift was for our lovely Lols so my Magnolia's had a week off and I inked up one of Lols favourite little mice instead :)
The little mouse sat on the base of the cotton reel is made using Martha Stewarts crafters clay, I need to spend some more time playing with this & really get the hang of it as I do love it & it's nice to be able to create little embellies to suit your project.
I've also handmade the pearl pin, & the twirly stem is made using some flowersoft wire & glitter.
The sentiment is a Magnolia stamp which unfortunately I couldn't find it in store to link up :(
The Copic Colours I've used are -
mouse - E44, E43, E41, E40, flowers - RV95, RV93, RV91, leaves - YG97, YG95, YG93, ground - E55, E53, E51, sky - BG0000, BG00, B0000, B000
As always our lovely Heidi is sponsoring our challenge with a fabby $50 is store spending spree
Don't forget to visit the SIMON SAYS STAMP STORE BLOG peeps for inspiration, candy and lots of lovely new or featured products.
I'm entering my cotton reel in the following challenges -
Make It Monday - anything goes
A mahoosive thank you to our lovely Sarah for not only making me the beautiful gift & card below but also for filling the cute little tin with the most gorgeous embellies & every single item is just perfect for me, I love them all, Sarah totally nailed "Mandy style" with my perfect presents, thanks soooo much hunny xxx
Who used the naughty or nice Santa app thingy on facebook? You can tell it was a fake Santa as you could ask every day if you were on Santa's naughty or nice list & I was permanently on the naughty list so I've decided that was a load of rubbish, stupid thing lol.
That's me done for today lovely peeps, enjoy the rest of the day & thanks for stopping by
