A Sunday Giveaway

Hello friends

I'm enjoying Christmas in Summer...


Not quite with turkey and tinsel but I am busy making festive crafty 
projects to take on my demos.
I will be sharing those soon but in between I think you should 
be enjoying Christmas too...with a festive giveaway.

I have a pre-loved set of Snowflake Bliss that needs a new home,
there's four very pretty snowflake dies in this set and they look like this...

I used them as a garland to decorate a package.

They would look gorgeous on a tree, card, box and more.

Really simple, just leave a comment on today's blog post and a winner will
be picked out later this week.

Roast dinner day today...thank you Mum :)

Take care friends.

    Well with the temperature close to freezing a couple of nights ago, it's been feeling more like Christmas than mid summer! Oh well, it's made me get started on my Christmas crafting!

    Hi Christine, I am still hoping for some more summer, although it feels more like autumn now. Love your design with the snowflakes on the parcel wrapping, they are such a pretty die cut. Sunday roast sounds scrummy.

    Hi Christine
    With so many people starting their preparations for Christmas, I am thinking it is about time I began. I do like it when you show us die cuts in white and what a clever idea to use when wrapping parcels. I will keep my fingers crossed for the draw

    I've just returned from a week away at Potters with the family, so I have a lot of catching up to do with my blog reading! I don't usually get into the Christmas card making until later on, so well done you!
    Love this die, what a great way to decorate a gift. Thank you for the chance to win it.
    Enjoy your roast dinner at Mum's 😊

    Christmas is on my to do list, cards to make and ideas to borrow from others. I like the brown wrapping paper with twine and white snowflakes, kind of understated and classy. Thanks for the chance to win them. I love the smell of a roast dinner cooking mmmmm. Enjoy!

    Morning Christine,

    I love these dies. I must confess I haven't even started thinking about Christmas yet even though in January I said I'm going to make a couple of Christmas cards each month to save the panic in December! I think these dies could be my inspiration! Take care,
    Jean xx

    Hi Christine,
    What beautiful snowflakes. I would be 'over the moon' if I were the lucky winner! I'm really rather jealous of your Sunday Roast today...mine is going to be pasta lol. Living on my own I don't usually bother with a roast, except on my birthday and at Christmas, so I'm sitting here drooling at the thought of you not only enjoying yours but not having to cook it yourself. If I were your side of the country I'd have been a stowaway and would have begged to join you lol.
    Good luck everyone!!

    Christine,
    I have somewhat of a snowflake obsession, shhh did I say that out loud, lol. No really I do. Swarovski puts out a new crystal one every year since around 1998, they're magnificent. My mom bought me one every year since 1998 and I display them on a gold metal Christmas tree, only at Christmas time. They'd be displayed all year if my husband didn't nag me to put them away, lol. My mom passed away two years ago and the first Christmas I had a hard time taking them out, It was a reminder that my last snowflake would be from 2012. To my surprise my mom spoke with her sister and told her that she must keep that tradition going, so my aunt took over for mom. Well enough about that. I'd love to win the snowflake set, oh the possibilities. I love your cards, always clean and so elegant, thanks for inspiring and the chance to win.

    Lucky you to have a mum to cook for you :) I would love one of my mum's roast dinners but that's long past. Oh well, now I get to do it instead although today we went out on our motorbike and I didn't bother cooking for anyone :) Love those snowflakes and the way you've used them on the package is really cute.
