Here's my take on this weeks Mojo Sketch.
I couldn't resist using some ribbon though - and I think it balanced the lower half of the card....and come to think of it I think its my first Christmas card this year! I've had the build-a brads sitting here to use for ages - but being the magpie I am its hard for me to part with precious metal things...but this sketch really needed them. Better go post it - make sure you check out all the other entries here.
A little while ago I was trawling blogs for fun new 3D projects to make and I came by Tracy Harp's Blog where I found the instructions for this cute little box / bag. Now last year for Christmas I made cookies for all the guys in the family (my kind-of famous triple chocolate chip brownie cookies - definitely no Cadbury's chocolate) and had to make do with plain old cellophane bags - largely due to leaving it to the last minute to organise them - but I think a little man-bag of cookies would have been one bag even the most blokey of Kiwi men would like to carry!
Its all Stampin' Up! except for my wee reindeer friend there - I found these little felt creatures at a Christmas decorations shop around 18 months ago - always thought I would dye them with re-inkers but the cream lightened this box up just nicely. So anyway - this year the nephews, brother's in law, and Aidan's Dad might just all be sporting a new little man-bag! :)
As promised I did get another We Stamp tote made last night and I finished off the cards this morning before work. All nice and christmassy this time - Using the a bit of the great new designer paper from the upcoming Mini and a lot of Winter Post on the cards.
Again I have changed the joint of the strap to something a little pretty:
And the cards the middle card amongst this lot feature more mini preview goodies - the stamp set is Tree Trimmings.
Well, off to try and get a few more things made for further posting this week.
