all fairies can be for Christmas....

Good morning everyone, you will be happy to know there are no broken bones or black eyes and my lovely Dads crutches stayed firmly on the ground lol...I took your advice you clever girls who said it and smiled was extra nice and ignored the grumpiness, I think people are just fed up with life in general atm don't you, the recession is getting everyone down...we has a bit of a giggle in the checkout queue though, my Dad started giggling and I asked him why, he said he was laughing at the old woman in front of him, she turned around and I knew her AND shes younger than me...he says I forget your that old sometimes, he is so dry and funny and we couldn't stop laughing...love him to bits...my card for today is using a digi from Michelle Perkett Studio shes called Lily the Fairy of Enchantment, I coloured her with distress inks and of course there's wings so there has to be glitter and used her for a Christmas card, I love using everyday stamps for Christmas don't you, it seems better value when they are multi purpose don't you think...I used more of the gorgeous Fancy Pants 6x6 Saint Nick paper pad, I cant stop using this the colours are so lush, I finished with a fantastic thick Jade ribbon and knot, the Saint Nick sentiment is from the same pad, the digi and pad are from Bunny Zoe's Crafts...I'm entering this for the C.R.A.F.T challenge...right I'm off to the Craft show in Belfast today, so will be totally wrecked when I get back, well if I have shopped properly I will be lol...whatever your up to today have a brilliant...oh before I go I have something really special to show you tomorrow so will speak then

    LOL. Love the conversation between you and your dad. I got a little giggle too. :)

    Love this card. I really like the colors--that blue ribbon is a perfect match to the papers. It's unexpected for a Christmas card, but so lush! I also like her sparkly, delicate looking wings.
