Thanks for the kind comments about the winter bird challenge...wish I could enter it...there are hardly any entries! I don't have a sentiment on that card (I forgot to leave room.I am currently almost finished 3 more and also a Penny Black Christmas Goose.
ReplyDeleteI will be sure to leave room for a sentiment and enter if i get them finihsed in time,. I am having company tonight...drat!!! I babysit my grandkids tomorrow so can't throw a 2am cardmaking spree tonight! I'll see what i can do as it ends quite soon...perhaps i can get one finihsed before bed and enter it in the morning...Not sure of the time change between West Coast Canada (PST) and where the challenge is...
Thanks for the alert. I will watch their challenges in the future...do you win that lovely stamp set with the sweet little fox?
