Not a card... again

This weekend just gone, we spent an early Christmas celebration at my parents house.  Because my parents are still coming to us for Christmas day, the idea was to gift something small/inexpensive.  

I made a Christmas cushion years ago with red work stitching and since she passed, it has lived with me and come out each year.  I know how much my mum admired this so I wanted something for her to have with the same sentiment.  Handmade and Christmas - what better than a cushion right?  

I bought some navy linen, to match their navy grey and white decor of their house and sewed the zippered cover before adding a heat transfer vinyl design, cut with my cricut machine.  

Mum seemed pretty chuffed with the gift.  I'm glad :) 

Happy Christmas Crafting

Inky Christmas

 Our Inky Stampers team recently had their online Christmas party and Secret Santa was a part of it.  I sent off a package of a few goodies but these probably turned out my favourite.... a stationary set using new stamps which are release in January. 

All up there was 3 note pads - a large and small lined as well as a blank page one.   I'm glad Marian was in need of these... I feel like I may have to have a set of my own now too.

Happy stamping,
