Another Christmas card

012a

Good morning another hot one here, but thank goodness not so humid as it has been.  had a lovely day with my Aunt yesterday, we went into Canterbury to do a some shopping and a little bit of site seeing, the Cathedral looks wonderful in the sunshine and the gardens were so peaceful we had a lovely hour just sitting in the gardens and and doing a bit tourist spotting, I take everything about Canterbury for granted its not until I see other people so awestruck by the City and Cathedral that I realise how lucky I am to live so close.  We had a yummy Bacon Baguette and Latte in Marks and Spencers, then later a large bag of Chips from the best chip shop in the UK!!!!. 

Well down to todays card, it is another DT card for Lili of the Valley , as I have not had the time to get up here, but I will not apologise for showing another of the brilliant Christmas Release as they are so cute I am sure like me you would never get fed up seeing them.

012

These cute Carol Singers have been coloured with Copics and Prismas, I have used Magnolia Paper and a Magnolia Silent Night Music Stamp, I have torn around both and added Walnut Stain Distress Ink to the music Sheet.  The Flowers are as usual from Wild Orchid Crafts and the leaves were punched with a Martha Stewart Punch.

016a  We are off to do a bit of gardening now, got the horrible job of clearing the weeds from the paving stones on the patio.

have a goo day

Hugs Jacqui xxxx
