    This is a very simple Christmas card. I saw something very similar in Paperchase last year, but it cost about £3.50 - so I found a very similar stamp and made my own.

    All I have added are a few tiny clear gems plus a tiny heart shaped gem and a bit of translucent glitter
    beautiful card :T

    I'm going to be making a Christmas version of this soon. Going to have a search for some red and green fat quarters, I think.

    mummyslittleboy they are fab!! You have put so much work into them don't put yourself down. Did you know you can get Twilights mints which are oblong, they are like a fat after 8, and make a change to the round ones.

    I think I am going to have to pay a visit to Accessorize for some of those gorgeous stickers

    I came out of Accessorize £65 lighter the other day with their stickers!!!! Not good - but good really! Love them!
