Silent Night

Good afternoon

It has been hot and humid here the last few days so goodness knows why I felt inspired to make another Christmas card.  I have used the new Papermania 'A Silent Night' papers again because I think they are perfect for this sweet LOTV image. 




Image ~ LOTV Christmas Angels Praying
Papers ~ Papermania 'A Silent Night'
Flowers & leaves ~ Prima
Pearls ~ The Hobby House
Ribbon ~ Dovecraft
Sentiment ~ Papermania sticker mounted on nestie die cut

The school holidays start this Friday so I won't have as much time for crafting and blogging .  We have planned lots of days out and have discussed going to stay in London for a few days.   I haven't been to London since I was about 10 years old when my mum's friend took me and her daughter on a day trip lol!

Hi Lisa

This is a very sweet card. Some of those LOTV images are adorable, yet to but any but give me time.

Hope you cope with the big hols OK, not sure if it's better the weather stays as it is so everyone can get outdoors, but then we all get hot and bothered and perhaps a bit of rain would help.
