A quick pre-holiday post

Tomorrow we're heading out to the dirt roads of South Africa and it will be, God willing, about 2 weeks before I'm posting again. Here's a journal I decorated for a friend's daughter's birthday:

I've used these recycled paper journals before and they're easy to decorate.

I used GinaK Design stamps:

To all my blog friends I pray you are very Blessed Christmas. Let us remember the REASON for the SEASON. The coming of our Lord and Saviour, Christ Jesus.

DS4J challenge: Anything Goes!

It's our favourite challenge! It's ANYTHING GOES at Digistamps4Joy (make sure you read the challenge rules).

I used the adorable Giraffe Christmas Lights. This is so appropriate for us here in South Africa :D
The sentiment is from Unity Stamps' October Kit of the Month and the background DP is Bo Bunny.

So head on over to DS4J and share your creations.

PS: Yes, if you scroll down you'll see more of the dotted Bo Bunny paper which I loved for their "happyness".

Twinkle wreath

Here's another card using the bubble DP from Bo Bunny. I thought it went well with the idea of Christmas baubles:

Unity KOM http://unitystampco.com/shop/oh-christmas-tree-kom-1013/

I stamped the little light bulbs in 4 colours and covered them with Glossy Accents before cutting out.

Dino trail

Here's a quick card using the dinosaur from Unity's "Mr Boy":

I stamped the 'spine' of the dinosaur a second time and cut it out to pop up.
Sentiment: PTI's Think Big Favorites #12

A sketchy challenge at MAWTT!

My apologies to my teamies for being late with my post! My kids have been sick and things have been hectic! So without further delay, here is my card for Moving Along With The Times "SKETCH" challenge:

Here's the super charming sketch we used and ask you to play with:

I used an image from the sponsor Scrapper's Delight "Kyoko Happy Birthday 1". The sentiment is from GinaK Designs.
Background paper: Bo Bunny
