Challenge time....long post......lol

over at The Crafty Pad. This weeks challenge is a brilliant sketch drawn up by our very lovely Maxine. :) :)

Here is my take on the sketch :-

I have used Christmas Ted - sleding snowman stamp available of course from The Crafty Pad.
Papers are BG.

We have 2 GDT this week and all the examples are beautiful - please do pop over and pay The Crafty Pad a visit. :) :)

My brother had been staying with me all week - so no crafting was done. We had a great week and caught up on lots of chat, we had a BBQ Friday night which was excellent fun..lol
I only made my DT card for the Crafty Pad this morning..lol...but then it got me on a roll and I have made another two.

Both cards are for challenges over at The Trimcraft forum:-

Challenge 1 is - shades of blue, I have used Cristmas Ted - sleding snowman again.

Challenge 2 is - Lots of Dots, I have use Percy Penguin - sleding available of course from The Crafty Pad.
