Tree Decoration

Hello me lovlies.  Earlier this year l bought quite a few MDF pieces to decorate and am ashamed to say they have been gathering dust, but when l saw the challenge at House Mouse l knew l had just the perfect piece.  I cut the tree shape out in card and stamped the mouse then distressed with blue ink and stamped snowflakes. A bit of colouring in, a touch of glamour dust, stuck it to the MDF tree and hey presto a lovely tree decoration.

Lots of Presents

Hello to you all, hope you are all well and have had sunshine today.  Looking out of the window we have bright blue sky and sunshine and all the leaves that are still on the trees are gorgeous shades of golds, reds and browns.
I made this card yesterday and it is now on its way to Jamaica to my niece, this is the time when she misses home as they don't celebrate birthdays like we do :( I have kept the matting to a minimum so the postage is fairly reasonable.

Thank you to everyone for the lovely messages on my previous post, we had a nice time at Disneyland Paris and Caitlin loved the rides even when it rained and there were'nt any queues.  The food prices were a bit of a shock in comparison to Florida - but for a short break it was ok. Just was not too impressed with the rat walking around just in the entrance when we went back for the evening laser/fireworks show and l don't mean a two legged one in costume either.  The hotel room was clean and tidy and the breakfast  was nice too but on the whole Florida has to be my preferred choice.  I will post a few photo's soon.
