Merry Christmas





“What does that beautiful star on top of the tree mean?”asked the curious hare

“It means that Jesus Christ our Lord has been born” replied the proud stag.


“When shadows fill our day

Lead us to a place

Guide us with your grace

Give us faith so we'll be safe”


I would like to thank everyone for all of your kindness and support. 


Merry Christmas xxx


Matthew 7:12; 'So whatever you wish that others would do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets.

Meeting Under The Mistletoe



If you remember my story from 12th December about the hare waiting under the mistletoe, this is the next installment.


For the next 11 days he continued to wash and fluff himself, and travelled to the three pines, to stand hopefully under the mistletoe.. but nobody ever came.


On the 12th day which also happened to be Christmas Eve, he decided this would be his very last visit. He hopped along with hope forever in his heart. As soon as he turned the corner into the three pines he saw the most beautiful and dazzling lady hare waiting patiently under the mistletoe.

She was waiting just for him....

Deer Globe




Hello how are your Christmas makes going - not long until the big day now.I have been playing with Luscious powders, Indigoblu Winterland Wood Stamp Set and a round spice jar !




 I used a glue called “special glue”  it is very thin, and is used for Glass & Plastic Baubles

I poured a small amount into the  spice jar, and rolled it around the back and sides of the jar.








I selected my Luscious colours and placed a small amount on a thin strip of card and shook it into the jar. 





I used  the smallest deer from the Winterland Wood Set and stamped him onto card and fussy cut him.


I then spooned some fine texture paste into the cork lid and stood the deer, and some dried flowers into it, and followed with a sprinkling of Unicorn Sparkles.


I addied a finishing touch by plaiting some Raffia and then tied it around the cork lid.Then with great care I pushed the deer into the jar and pushed the cork lid shut.


Thank you for visiting me today, please take a look at the Indigoblu blog to see what other creations the talented team have come up with.

Fairy Christmas Tree


Well our Christmas tree is finally up, and so far this year it has stayed up! We have a much stronger and easier base for it now, so fingers crossed !There are a lot of mischevious  fairies on our tree....


A quick and easy Christmas card, this time using Lavinia Stamps. I created the background with Dye inks, and used Texture Paste mixed with ultra fine glitter for my snow. I heat embossed the snowy white snowflakes, then coloured and glittered the die cuts.  

Thank you for visiting, I hope your Christmas plans are all going smoothly xx

Under The Mistletoe



The spritely young hare had heard that there was some mistletoe growing on the edge of the forest just by the three pines. So he jumped into the lake and washed himself all over including behind his long ears. He used a teasel to brush and fluff his fur, and then ran to the three pines and stood waiting hopefully under the mistletoe.....


All of the stamps I used to create this magical scene are by Lavinia Stamps.


Thank you for hopping by, I would like to enter this into the following challenges.

Stay Strong Against the Storms Delicate One




Well the weather has certainly turned wintery, and Christmas is fast approaching! How are all of your festive plans going?

Christmas is not always the happiest of times, and with this in mind I made this bauble. It’s base is made of thin wood, and it was an inexpensive find in The Range store.I painted it with  a light blue acrylic paint, and then stamped my beautiful snowdrop with Archival black ink.The Stamp is an old wooden one, I am guessing it is about 15 years old. I have several boxes of those old wooden stamps, I really must use them more often.I coloured the snowdrops with acrylic  paint and an overcoat of glitter! I added the stay strong Stamp from the  Dina Wakley Media - Cling  Handwritten Quotes set and heat embossed it in white. I added a flittering of white paint for falling snow.

For the top of the bauble I used Indigoblu flitterglu and mega flakes.

The delicate snowdrop is standing strong against the snowy storms and holding its beautiful head high.

Thank you for visiting, 
I hope you keep warm, safe, and well this winter xx
