My plans for Christmas, like so many others, have been put on hold. We usually have a big family meet up with local family members on Christmas Day and the wider family over New Year. This is our traditional Christmas 2 Celebration. For Christmas Day I try to make individual personalized crackers for every person there. This year I did not get around to it and even if I had we will not be sharing them together. I used the lovely image from Stampers Delights to make just one cracker, inspiration for next year! Of course this image would work equally well for a birthday card too.

So if you are inspired why not take a look at the Kit and Clowder Facebook page where you will find other wonderful inspirational makes as well as all the details for this year's Advent Calendar. All the links are below.

This is my final DT make for Stampers Delights as I am leaving the team to attend to family matters. It is possible that I may return at some stage but it will not be for some time so I am making no promises. I may pop up with the odd progressive challenge entry and I will be keeping an eye on Stampers Delights for all the new and exciting things planned for 2021.

Meanwhile I wish you all a happy and blessed Christmas and even though we cannot celebrate as we normally would the real meaning of Christmas has not changed, the churches are still open and Jesus still invites us into relationship with him. So this year why not put Christ back into Christmas for with out him Christmas just becomes mas which is meaningless.

Christmas Rejoicing

This is my last post for A Path of Positivity Challenge for some time as a DT Member. I have really enjoyed my long association with the challenge firstly as a contestant and for the last few years as a designer. But life has got in the way and I need to take a bit of a breather from the teams I am on. I hope to pop in with the odd entry to support the challenge from time to time.

Meanwhile despite everything that is going on we will be rejoicing this Christmas as we remember the coming of Jesus into the world to save us and looking forward to the time when he returns as King of Israel and ruler of the world. What rejoicing will happen then, I believe even more so than at His first coming.

However you celebrate this year and whether you have a Christian faith, a member of another faith tradition or no faith at all I pray that the Christ of Christmas will reveal himself to you afresh and surround you with his love and that peace that passes all understanding at Christmas and into the unknown paths of the new year. 

God bless.


Materials used:
PSX Nativity Silhouette rubber stamp
rectangle dies
white printer card
embossing ink pad
silver embossing powder
chalks in blues and yellow
silver star card
silver pen
5" x 7" card blank

The image has been embossed onto the printed panel and coloured with chalks using a small foam makeup applicator.

I hope you will join us in this last challenge of 2020. Here are all the details and links for you:

Our optional twist is REJOICE. For many, this time of year is an occasion for happiness. While the pandemic makes this year harder to get together with those you may normally spend time with during the holiday season, there are still many reasons we have to rejoice. Thus, we want you to create a project that reflects the JOY of the holiday season.

In order to be considered eligible for this month's prizes, remember that general types of  projects/posts will not qualify for the prizes unless they are also positive, inspirational, motivational or encouraging in some nature. Additionally, even if a project may qualify as positive, if your post promotes negativity, hatred or anything of an abhorrent nature, your project will be disqualified. Prizes this month include:
  • A $10 gift certificate from Limited Runs, our guest sponsor for this month, for a person chosen in a random draw based on all qualifying entrants.
  • ONE image (value of $5 or less) from Scribbles Designs, for the post or project that the team deems most inspiring of the bunch based on all qualifying entrants.
  • One digital image from Creative Bug Digital SnapShots for each person chosen as a DT
You can find more inspiration  and the link up on the Path of Positivity Challenge Blog here.


Thanks for dropping in. Take care.
