Well. as 2010 is nearly over, I just wanted to wish you all a very happy, healthy, peaceful new year.
I have had a chance to play with some new stash - my sister in law and brother came over the other day with my Christmas present that had got delayed in the post - toys!!!
It's ok, Lynne - I won't tell them what you did with the box of gems. (But I am still finding them....) tee hee, bet you thought you'd got away with it!!
So I used the pine trees on a tag - coloured with a mixture of distress ink and some eco-green paint (green patina, which has a glorious shimmer to it)
I made a rosette with some of the lost and found paper stack in suitable colours, and a small pearl at the centre (something Lynne and I decided would look good the other day)
The stamp is part of a Christmas one that I got back out of the drawer, and I made a couple of tissue tape ruffles to accent it.
If you're going out tonight, have a fabulous time - don't drink too much - get home safely - have fun! I will be staying home and watching the London fireworks on TV in bed.... sad that I am!
Happy new year Helen!
ReplyDeleteThe rosette does look good that way up with a little pearl (See i do sometimes have some good ideas!)
Going out off to a party in a moment.

Don't you just love those embossing folders, they are fab and love your creation. Happy New Year Helen and staying in sounds good to me. Annette x
ReplyDeleteStaying home tonight probably means you'll be a lot more in shape to play with your new goodies tomorrow! Wishing you the happiest and crafiest of new years:):)
ReplyDeleteWell, I guess it's already 2011 over there, so... Happy New Year! You'll love those new PP colors, I really love the espresso. Your tag is wonderful, that L & F paper makes great rosettes!
ReplyDeleteThe tag is lovely, love the way the pine trees have an ethereal feel to them. Happy New Yearxx
ReplyDeleteHappy new year Helen! Love your tag, lucky you getting stash for christmas! xx
ReplyDeleteGorgeous tag Helen - we watched the fireworks at home too. Made a buffet played Pictionary and the kids went mad on the wii :P
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year!
Wishing you a very Happy New Year Helen and thanks for your support in 2010.
ReplyDeleteAnd here's to a change of luck on the pitch.......not sure Roy's new Year will be too positive listening to the news.

ReplyDeleteGot me intrigued as to where the missing items are???? Lovely tag - that is a great folder isn't it.
ReplyDeleteBTW if you lived closer you would have been welcome to join us but might have made for interesting conversation with you and son (Everton supporter).
