I haven't been in the craftroom for a few days. At the weekend we both felt a bit poorly, nothing specific, just really lethargic, no energy and occasional pains. Thankfully on Monday we felt back to normal and decided to go into the city for the day and do some Christmas shopping. We have gor most of it done now as we don't want to be shopping nearer Christmas when it will be much busier. We had a lovely day as it wasn't too crowded. Bill's were doing special price lunches so we enjoyed a leisurely lunch before doing a bit more shopping.
The weather was really miserable yesterday and the light was very poor for taking photographs. I did manage to improve it slightly with Photoshop. I used two of the new kraft and white digi papers from LOTV and an old favourite rubber stamp Mr Snowman. He is now available as a digi stamp. Coloure with Copics, sentiment is LOTV and I added some diecut trees and a Whimsy fence and some sparkle on the snow and baubles with a clear sparkle pen.
You will know how much I love snowmen so when I saw some snowmen masks on Ebay I had to buy us one each. We will be wearing those a bit nearer to Christmas.
Stay safe x

What a lovely card Marianne. Glad you are feeling better. I am making festive face coverings for my colleagues this year xx
Wonderful card, Marianne, beautiful colours tones. Sounds like you had a nice day Christmas shopping. Bill's is one of favourite restaurants. I shall have to see if the one in Bury St Edmunds is doing any deals, we may pop in to town next week. The snowmen masks sound fabulous. I saw one on Facebook the other day that lights up and plays Jingles Bells!
Creative Blessings. x
