Good afternoon to you all
As I write this the new engine is being lowered into Matt's car (fingers crossed) - do hope it all works when they get it in their
So whilst they have been getting messy under the bonnet, I have been getting messy in the Beach Hut, you see I cannot go anywhere as they are using my car and little me for popping to get bits if they need them. I feel like a little yo yo :)
Yesterday I escaped for a little while and had arranged to meet Jill at the Hobby House, it was lovely to be able to have a catch up with her, and please note the Hobby House is back open after all the snow but do be careful getting there and is opening a little longer this year so if you are local you will be able to pop and get yourselves some more delish stash. I got some lovely new bits and cannot wait to play.
I still have not been shopping for food so Matt may not have any pack up next week and dinner is not looking good either :( and once I have posted this I need to get on with some ironing so I can have non disturbed viewing of X Factor this evening - I am praying for Matt Cardle to win :)
So this is a box I have made to put something in, the something will be posted later as part of my Winter Wonderland DT inspiration
I added lace around the side and then some ribbed black ribbon. The top papers are black card and Papermania Capsule Collection mono (I love a bit of black and white) So I have used some creatables die's and some lace, some diamante gems and a little house mouse all finished off with a spray of flowers and a spray over with some silver glitter (loving this spray glitter and Jane you are so right it is addictive)

Is it stamped and slightly coloured or just stamped?
