Counting down the days

Hi all,

Its time for a new showcase over on the Milkcoffee Blog and today the team are showcasing some of the new Christmas images.

For my creation I have used to fabulous Lisbeth & Christmas - isnt she so adorable singing along to her favorite christmas carols with her pets in tow.

I created a fabby little Countdown to Christmas chalkboard calendar for Abbie, and had such fun making it.

 
I started off with a cheap frame from the £1 shop and replaced the glass with a piece of chalk board which again I got from the £1 shop and just chopped to size.  I decorated the frame with ribbon, die cut pontsettia flower and my new holly flourish. The letters I found in my stash and were from a sheet of die cut alphabets.

Now I know its not 24 days till christmas at the moment, but we put our decorations up on the 1st and so it will be 24 days then. I also just wanted to put a number on there for the photo lol!!!

Please do pop on over to the Blog and check out what my team mates have created with some of the other fabulous Christmas designs.

Thanks for popping by my blog today
