Christmas Card and Biggin Hill Report





Hello,

Well me and my sis decided we would check out the 'papercraft extravaganza' at Biggin Hill today, well it would be rude not to as we are only 45 mins away!! Lovely drive down, the autumn colours are so pretty and the sun was shining. Now I only went to look but Oyster samps were selling 4 sets of nesties for £55.00, so me and my sis chose two each, pretty smart I think. There was also an offer on the MS punches so it was only fair to have one of those each as well!!!

It actually was really good for a small venue, the coffee was pants though!! I also got some papers and a couple of promarkers, my collection of these is now looking quite good. All in all an enjoyable little trip.

My card today is for 2 challenges

PBSC - Sketch

Papertake Weekly - 3 of a kind

The image is from PB Jolly Friends and the papers are from the Honey and Hugs range by Papermania. I used Kars medium and small snowflakes punch (x3) and gems and ribbon from stash! The little snowman is also standing in a nice splattering of twinklets which I also used for his hat.

Thanks for popping in and I'm off to play with my new nesties!
