It's been AGES since my last entry. I do have a good excuse though, I've made a start on reorganising and decorating our bedroom and the junk had to go somewhere - you guessed it - my crafting room! Which means I couldn't actually get to my desk for quite a while!! But I've had a tidy up and I'm back in the land of cardmaking! I'm so excited as I ordered my Cuttlebug yesterday! I was going to wait and put it on my Christmas list but decided that was too long to wait and CraftsULove had it on offer so I ordered it and a few embossing folders. I also bought a few bits from the craft shop at Bluewater today; a lovely Basic Grey paper pack with matching brads and some cardstock. So I'm ready to go!

Here is a card I put together quickly last night for the Papertake challenge. The paper is from DCWV oriental matstack and the stamp is from a Woodware clear set. The paper is so pretty I didn't want to add another pattern so kept it simple and as the sentiment wouldn't fit into a circle I stamped it at the bottom and added a chinese coin instead.
