Hello! Well, we’re nearly there but are you actually ready yet?! We have a few things to do and of course the BIG Christmas food shop but apart from that things are on track 🙂 The past week has been a bit up and down though as my son caught the dreaded sickness bug that’s doing the rounds. As soon as he said ‘Orlaith was sick at school today’ I knew it was only a matter of time that he would succumb 😦 He’s getting back to his old self now so I’m keeping my finger’s crossed that my daughter doesn’t get it for Christmas!
Anyways, enough about yukky bugs, here’s the last card that I will be sharing this year! This stamp set is called Winter Penguin from Lawn Fawn, I also used it’s corresponding die. Other items used were; Lawn Fawn Eveyday Sentiment Banner Die, Lawn Fawn Forest Border and Snowy Backdrop Die. Frantic Stamper Stitched Scene Builder Die, MFT Inside and Outside Diagnol Stitched Square Die, MFT Watercolour Brights papers, Lawn Fawn Let’s Polka in the Dark papers, Spectrum Noirs and a Memento Tuxedo Black inkpad.
Well, that’s all from me for today and indeed this year. I just want to say thank you to everyone who has visited my blog over the past year and also for all the lovely, kind comments that you leave – they are so appreciated 🙂 I really hope that you all have a wonderful Christmas and a peaceful, happy and healthy New Year!
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year Everyone!
Your card is fabulous, Karen! I love the colour combination, the design, the sweet penguin, and that wonderful die! Yes, I love all of it! 🙂
A Very Merry Christmas to you! I look forward to seeing more from you in the New Year! 🙂

Such a cute winter landscape and penguin, a detailed yet clean feel design. Adorable!
Hope you had a lovely Christmas and a great new year celebration. We just had a quiet and comfortable evening at home yesterday. I’m not much for celebrating New Years, I don’t fancy all the fire work (or rather, the non sober people firing them up).
