Good morning, it's Friday again - and time for a new challenge at
This week we're sponsored by
The optional twist for those who want to use it is CELEBRATIONS, chosen by our lovely Aunty Sue, who is hosting this week's challenge.
I managed to make a Christmas card at last- I've made several attempts recently and thrown them all away- using a cute sponsor image called Chris Moose. I've coloured him up with my markers and fussy cut him, with hindsight I wish I'd printed him a bit larger. I've used a sketch from Sweet Sketch Wednesday and embossed all the layers.
It's getting very close to our holiday now, this will be my last post before we go, we're off to Italy for a week and will celebrate our 51st Anniversary while we're there. It's the first time we've been overseas together for nearly 12 years as we usually prefer to stay in the UK so we can take our dog with us!
Don't worry about Marvin though- he has a favourite 'auntie' to stay here with him and we've booked a holiday in June with him in mind-in the countryside but close to the sea which he adores! Not that he's spoiled or anything...
Thanks for visiting today
Chris

Great use of white space Chris, each element hold interest without detracting from the Moose.
Have a wonderful holiday and something tells me Marvin will be spoilt rotten when your away.
