Hi peeps - hope you are all having a happy week.
After 5 days, my Followers have returned, no thanks to "Blogger Help". I downloaded Firefox and the followers returned immediately, so if anyone else is having problems, it may be worth trying.
I am also a very happy bunny to learn that I won the prize at last month's Magical Worlds challenge at Sir Stampalot with my MAWTT DT Mermaid card HERE

Anyway, enough of my rambling - this week at the MAWTT Challenge it's the lovely Shell's turn to host, and she doesn't want to see any of those gorgeous Designer papers on your project (yikes)!! So c'mon - I know you can do it!!
Our lovely Sponsor this week is Didge, (Shells' Daughter) whose images are available from Stitchy Bear Stamps . The prize is 3 of Didge's cute images, which were designed exclusively for MAWTT - pop over there for all the details.
****************
I have used a beautiful Poinsettia image, also from Didge, and made my first Christmas card of 2011 - yayyy!!
Recipe:-
The textured Very Vanilla card is from Stampin' Up.
The Poinsettias have been re-sized, cut out and layered, then coloured with Copics. The swirl stamp is from Crafty Individuals, and the digi sentiment is from Raindrop Echo Designs, available from Whimsy Stamps.
Edges inked with black Staz-on to create a slightly "worn and shabby" look. Glamour Dust added to the flower centres.

Thank you for all the wonderful entries last week, and don't forget - no designer papers!!
Love to all ~

Beautiful card, Sylvia! I was going to email you back, but I've been having problems with email (BT yahoo maintenance apparently). Firefox definitely seems to be working for most people.Glad you are finding it better. BTW, if you want to follow a blog, but can't find it on the sidebar, there is a follow button right at the top of the blog on the left hand side (Next to the search box)

A fabulous card Sylvia, I love the layered look of the flower. Aren't you good making a Christmas card - you will be ahead of yourself as the time gets nearer.
I've changed to Firefox but I can't see every photo so I have to keep swapping from Firefox to IE to see them and back again to be able to leave a comment. I guess it will all get sorted one day!!!

Hi Sylvia. What's this about Christmas!!!!!
It's a gorgeous card. I love the poinsetta.
I've been on Firefox for years and Blogger seems to behave much better usually that IE. Hope it continues to be good for you.
