Are these blurred or are my eyes screwy - A Spoon Full of sugar 129-Snowflakes + Allsorts challenge week 78 + CYDA-Christmas trees

Good morning everyone how are you all its going to be a family Sunday lunch day today, my gorgeous Phil makes the best yorkshire puddings ever yum yum...I was supposed to go to the Craft show at the Kings Hall yesterday but could it be I'm shopped out oh no shock horror, or it might be I have hardly touched my new stash so there didn't seem much point in buying more did there...my card for today is using this amazing gorgeous Marianne Designs Snoesjes Christmas Bells stamp, I love these so much and was thrilled to bits when Nikki sent me this beauty to play with, I even did my little happy dance, I coloured her with Distress inks and paper pieced and glittered her up...the lush papers are from the new Kaisercraft Tis the Season paper pad wow aren't they fab, the wired gingham ribbon (brilliant for doing the waved ribbon effect and no Jane this isn't how I usually do them lol) and gold snowflakes are from Bunny Zoes Crafts too...I love the way this card turned out but wish the photo hadn't turned out so blurred, don't you hate it when that happens...I'm entering this for the A Spoon Full of Sugar and Craft your Days away challenges and I used the sketch from Allsorts challenge too...I hope you have a wonderful day planned

    I'm not surprised you were doing the happy dance, Mina - that image is gorgeous, as is the card! I love her red boots- do you think they do them in my size?

    I think you might need a trip to the opticians, Mina. Or maybe I do - it doesn't look blurred to me. It looks gorgeous. It is hard in the winter months not to get a colour caste on photos though. All my recent ones don't look true to the colour of the cards at all. Beautiful paper piecing, fab DPs and I love that bow! I'm just picturing you doing your happy dance! Warmest wishes, Lesley

    Methinks I will have to get me some Kaiserkraft paper!! The colours are so delicious. Funny, they never look much when you see the picture of the pad.
    Love that stamp too, she looks so cute and very-very cosy!!

    Please post tomorrow a vid' of the "Happy Dance!" - This I must see. I've been having Ribbon-Envy-Therapy for a few weeks now & my treatment is going well. I can now look at your ribbony cards wearing dark glasses and a balaclava with the eyes sewn up without ripping the wires outta the back of the computer & lobbing it out of the window...with rage! I can just about make out a gorgeous card with a lush ribbon!...There! Computer intact xx
