Hi all :-) How are you on this bright sunshiny day ? Hope all is well :-)

I am here with a card for the ABC Christmas Challenge, this time the lovely Angela is hosting and the theme is 

'B' for BOWS, BUNTING or BAKING

This week Sami Stamps are sponsoring and just love her images ! I had seen a few of these cute Snowmen around and couldn't wait to print one off, I will definitely be making more, there is a whole set of these ! ADORABLE :-)

I am keeping my Xmas cards fairly CAS so that 

a, they fit in a normal envelope

b, they qualify for low postage rates

Wild Rose Studio Mouse on Presents

Hi all :-) I am a bit late with my Papertake Weekly Post, sorry Dawny xx

This week we all need to

GET IN SHAPE

especially after all those mince pies haha 

actually, you can still munch through a pack of choccy biscuits,  
all we want you to do this week is to include 3 or more different shapes on your card or project, and your base card can count as one.

I used this super cute Wild Rose Studio 'Mouse on Presents' image 

I have square, rectangle, oval 

I must admit I did struggle with this challenge, getting all the shapes on there ! It took me ages and I wish I had made it a bit easier on myself and used a circle shaped base card to start with. I was too lazy to get the Grand Calibur out !! :-) I do love the Oval Frame Die cut though, so pretty. I fussy cut a base for it so all the details would show up nicely. 

We are sponsored by our lovely teamie Mary and Andrea, aka Ribbon Girl, so a fabulous prize on offer this week :-)

Challenges :
Cards und More      Animals
Craft-Dee BowZ    Anything Goes with a handmade bow
Brown Sugar        Birthday for a girl
Creative Knockouts    Birthdays

Hope you all have a great week :-)
