Emily's First Christmas cards




Hi everyone, I am writing this on behalf of my daughter (Emily this time not Alex), who is currently at school. These are the first cards she has made with me properly - I say that because normally she is using her own stash - or her sisters - this was my stash!!!!!. She picked the ribbons to start with and then the papers to go with them - they were some I already had printed. She decided where the bits were going and in some cases did the sticking - no cutting yet with the proper scissors as she is only 5 and a bit untrustworthy (did I say that about my daughter - yes and it's true!!).  She was very helpful pulling off the double sided tape backing and tidying up afterwards.

Please leave a comment so she knows you have popped by - her reading is improving so it will help her.  Thanks in advance from Dragonlady.

I am entering her cards in the following challenges:-

1. The Little Red Wagon Christmas Cards

2. The Paper Shelter Christmas Sparkle, Red Green and Gold.

3. Everybody Art Challenge - Christmas Cards.

4. Papertake Weekly - Christmas Crackers.

5. Lollipop Crafts - Anythiing Goes.

6. One Stitch At A Time - Anything Goes.

7. Paper Sundaes - Beautiful Bows

8. The Crafty Pad - Festive Cheer.

Lasting Memories Challenge #21

I made most of the layout and I chose the ribbons, buttons and other embellishments. Mum helped me with the journaling and I did the title. I chose the purple and pink to go with my clothes.
I love going to our local Nature reserve, there are lots of walks in the woods and sometimes it is creepy. There is somewhere where you can watch birds - I call it a bird hut. We sometimes see Swans on the lake.

I am entering my layout at Lasting Memories Layout Challenge.

Also Stamp Scrap and Doodle - Anything Goes and

Craft Your Passion - Buttons real or faux.

Must go to bed now - Mum says oh and just a quick note to Dawn - Happy Birthday.

My first layout

I made this picture for some friends of mine. I am using my Mums Digital Scrapbook Artist 2. I have made a few layouts but this is the first one I have posted here and entered into a challenge.

My Mum has just been asked to be a Design Team member at Lasting Memories so I also wanted to show her team mates what I can do. I love playing with DSA and I love to make little scenes so this is my style.

The challenge is to show your style - here

Sorry I haven't been here for a while but Mum says school comes first!!! (Mum talking as Alex is in bed).
