Today I've been doing two swaps that I'm in! The first is a circle journal swap on Bubbly Funk and the theme was 'Public Art' in your local area so off I went to Ealing!!


The second swap is a Calico Dolly swap on UKS which has caused a bit of head scratching at times. This is the second to last bit and was 'Accessories' so I made a top hat and some wings, as seen in the photo!


This is how she now looks from the front -



and this is my efforts from the back!!



The next (and last) doll I get will need 'beads and embellishments' so I'm on a bit more familiar ground there!! Now to get them wrapped up and ready to post. I'm keeping my fingers very tightly crossed because I think mine plus a couple more, are holed up somewhere, so watch this space!!!

This week's challenge on 'craftyhazelnutschristmaschallenge' was to use a Christmas song or carol. I used a stamp with 'have yourself a merry little christmas ' and three trees on, and made the following card!

Here's this week's card for Hazels Christmas challenge! The theme is to use circles, so I managed two!!! I glued the circles on to the vellum background and it's looking a bit 'crinkly' so I hope it dries flatter!! Maybe I should have used glue dots?? I then stickled round the outside of the circles, on the snow and in the corners, but it doesn't show up very well in the photo!!

Another week for the Craftyhazelnutschristmaschallenge!! This week's theme was Christmas foliage and/or flowers. Once again I used papers and toppers from my favourite 'Making Cards'!! I'm getting quite a collection of Christmas cards now!
