Thank you so much for visiting my blog today, I am really excited to be sharing with you the news that we have an end of year sale starting today.
These are items that are retiring at the end of this current catalogue. They are on a 'while stocks last' basis so when they are gone they are gone. Things do tend to sell very quickly so if you see something you want don't delay or it will be gone.
Thank you so much for visiting my blog today, I really hope you like my project. I follow a lot of Facebook Craft Fair groups and watch a lot on YouTube at this time of year because this is when I do my craft fairs. I have seen a lot of these chocolate bars made up to look like snowmen and have loved them. The ones I see mainly use a pair for gloves for the hat but I thought that that made them quite expensive and was worried about the outlay if no one bought them. SO I saw a video late one night where they had got a cheap fleecy blanket and made their own hat and scarf from that. I do not remember who the person was and it was such a long time ago that I cannot search my history so sorry if that is you, perhaps you could message me and I will link you :-)
Once I made a big bar I then made some little ones from small Cadbury Dairy Milk and some small Hersey Bars. I have not done a tutorial on the little ones but will if people want me too. Just let me know :-)
Thank you so much for visiting my blog today, I really hope you like my project. I have been looking at the Christmas projects I made last year and thought I would share some of my favourites again. This one gained some recent attention because people saw this little chap in my craft room tour and asked for the tutorial. So I have decided to share it again in case new followers missed it and have not scrolled back a year to find it.
It was quite funny looking back at the video, I just watched snippets of it, at first I had no idea where is was filmed then realised it was in my lounge on the coffee table and I was using a tripod - my desk must have been really messy for me to move to the lounge! lol!
Also funny seeing my old watermark and my old home made photo light box ... I have come along way since then!
For the scarf I used the Striped Wired Ribbon, Black Rhinestones for the smile, an orange enamel dot for the nose (all of these are now retired) I used some large googly eyes to finish the cute face off.
To hold the 3 boxes together I tied a length of Black Shimmer Ribbon. Also retired
I love my Frosty the snowman, I used him as a lovely Christmas decoration last year and he will be making another appearance this year. Everyone loves him who meets him :-)

Time for the close ups!
I hope you enjoyed this look back at last years Christmas project. I am amazed at the difference in my blogging, photography and editing.

Thank you so much for visiting my blog today, I really hope you like my project. I have done a #simplestamping with a die cut. I originally started out by intending on duplicating a very old card I made years ago and it then evolved into this! How often do you do that?
