Fifi Goes Walkies

Hello my lovely crafty friends - l hope you are all well and back to normal after all the festivities. Christmas is all packed away and stacked in boxes in the garage.  The stack seems to be getting bigger after a few purchases - l have bought some icicle lights for the conservatory - an absolute bargain reduced from £50 down to £15 in Argos - they were sold out when l checked them but have been checking daily and they had a set in on sunday afternoon (they were out sunday morning) so l reserved them - then my daughter wanted some but they were sold out so l must have got the last set - never mind she can have my old rope light :). 

 I also have an addiction to christmas wrapping paper - l did not need any but it was reduced in Asda so l bought 3 rolls, then l saw some in sainsbury's with about 70% off so l bought....11 rolls - all different, then l went into asda again this week and bought 2 more - then l called into sainsburys on monday and they were selling it all off for 20p ... well l could not stop myself and bought 2 more and 10 bottle bags at 10p each. So........if ever there is a wrapping paper shortage l have over 30 rolls :)

Do you have any sale addictions???? 

Enough waffle and onto my card - l bought this stamp from Funky Kits a couple of months ago and have only just got around to colouring this little piece of sugar.  I made this card just because l wanted too and am pleased with the way it turned out and l am entering it into a couple of challenges.
