We went to the rugby again last night, it was fantastic even if it was freezing! lol! To make the night perfect my two favourite players were playing 'Danny Cipriani' (who is Kelly Brooks partner) & very tasty lol & Mark Cueto they both played fantastically, even tho Mark got injured!
To top it off Sharks won 26-10...come on you Sharks! lol
SPECIAL CHRISTMAS!
creations, so ....babies 1st Christmas, for Mom & Dad, Grandchildren etc....as long as the special sentiment is on the front of your creation!
My 'special Christmas' card is for our friends who are spending their 1st Christmas in their new home!
Also its the first time I have used an 8 x 8" square card. I've had a pack of 30 for along time, but have always been scared to use them. You will be seeing them a bit more I think lol!
I just love the tiny snowmen die!
I thought I'd show you a close up of my poinsettia holly corner thingy!

I really like the icicles below the ribbon Shell - a very nice detail. The die cut shape you used for the focal image is a great choice for that layout too. Thanks for sharing your project in the “Any Sentiment” Challenge.
