who could resist that face...

Good morning everyone...winter has arrived here and I think hibernation may be the order of the day...I even have my fluffy bed socks out of mothballs....bbbbbrrrrrrr...I had to go to Asda for printer ink yesterday and its filled with goodies for Christmas, is it just me or does it get earlier every year, what next Easter Eggs in December do you reckon lol...you know what this chilly weather means don't you....their bbbaaaacccckkkk...the spiders I mean I had three, yes three of the massive big things last night and the neighbours will be sending for the men in the white coats I think with me running around with a slipper like a loony again, I tell you whats worse than that is they are so massive I cant bring myself to move them and when I got up this morning one had disappeared so either its lurking somewhere waiting to go for my jugular or something bigger came and ate it...uuuuugggghhhhhh, I haven't a clue where they are coming from I'm sure someone is letting them loose in my house every night despite searching the house from top to bottom I cant find one web, I have tried the peppermint oil thing and all the sprays etc I can think off...the only thing I can think of now is a spider eating snake lol, Im determined to risk life and limb and trap one to show you how big they are so I have three clear vases in strategic places waiting to be grabbed to pop over the top so watch this space...right enough blethering onto my card for today which is for our new challenge at Colour Create challenge and this time the choice is mine...I chose Lilac, Grey and White and the extra option is snowflakes, you have to try this colour combo it works so well for a frosty card...I used the stunning Santa's Hat Girl from Mo's digital Pencil coloured with distress inks and paper pieced, now who could resist that little face...adorable...I punched the snowflakes shapes out of the lilac gingham and overlaid it onto this super sparkly paper which is in fact wrapping paper from my gift from my Daughter, I loved the paper so much I kept it, the photos don't do it justice as its super sparkly, I will see if I can get a better photo if the sun ever comes out again...I finished my card with a squiggly ribbon bow and one of the punched snowflakes from the paper...I'm entering this for The Ribbon Girls Christmas challenge, Fab N Funky die cut or punches challenge and the Cutie Pie Bingo challenge (I chose Lilac, Glitter and ribbon)...right I'm of to the supermarket with my lovely Dad today, if he doesn't go for a few days he gets withdrawal symptoms, either that or he has shares in Sainsburys he hasnt told me about lol...when you have time pop on over to Colour Create and see what our amazing team came up with for my colour choice, I cant wait to see what you come up with...have a brilliant day and keep warm
