Good morning and it is still snowing here!!!! I cannot believe it! More still to come over the weekend so I hope you are all staying safe and warm inside. This is a quickie post until I can do it properly tonight after work with all the links and other pics. Just Magnolia this week is a lovely challenge set by Mina and it is Paper Pleating. There is a tut over on the blog so please do pop over. Very quick update of post cos had one of those days ... sorry folks x



I have used the new stamps out of the winter kit. The accessory stamps are all gorgeous and this is my favourite Tilda from the kit. Must go and get ready for work but I will be back later to finish my post properly. Have a wonderful day xxx Oh my lord what a day - now only quicky update cos am fed up and having a glass of wine :o(
