Hello Everyone. Hopefully by now all your cards will be finished. This will be our last Challenge of 2017 and as it was my turn to choose the theme, I Thought it would be appropriate to pick Gifts for this one. Now it could be Gifts on a card or boxes or any other gifts you might have made for this Christmas.  I chose an MDF Tall Book card for each of my children with the idea it would be a keepsake in the years to come.  Sorry to say they have now been discontinued and were sold on AnneMaries Website.  The papers and Dies and Stamps are all from Chloes Creations and the Glitter and Embossing powders too. This is my own take on this one as I added some extra foliage and embellishments. You can see the difference the lights make and I also showed one with the lights off. I really had fun making these and wish I could get more.         
My Dear Friend Kate and I spent the most wonderful day in Glasgow on Friday, listening to the buskers and taking in the atmosphere that only a Big City holds at this time of year. Numerous Coffee stops and then a lovely Italian lunch and an exchange of gifts ,then we indulged ourselves in a bit of shopping. then after a coffee it became time to say our goodbyes and travel homeward, leaving the Christmas lights of the city behind.
 So I'll leave you today with All Good Wishes for a Very Merry Christmas and a Prosperous and Healthy New Year.  See you All in January.   Hugs Rita xxxx
