You have until Sunday 24th October 8:00pm to join in,plenty of time ,,, don't forget to let us know what new or neglected stash you have used on your cards/creations :-)



I decided to make a Luminary this week ,,, the sketch I thought could work quite well if I could find some stripey paper ,,,, after a little rummage I found this from My Minds Eye ,,, a Christmas Luminary it is then !! Everything I used on this I have had in my stash for at least a year !! I made a couple of these before ,, very quick and easy to do and a lovely gift idea I think !! You can see the instuctions here I just added some punched snowfakes and glimmer dots and that was it ,, done and dusted ,,, unlike the house ,,, ugh !!

this is the fab sketch designed by our lovely teamie Sue :-)
