Creative Inspiraions Christmas Decoraions NO CARDS!

Morning All!
How are we all?? Well the world has nearly come to a stand still here in Newcastle, for as long as I can remember we've been COVERED with snow!!! Yes it does look pretty but after nearly slipping 6 times a day & ALL the buses have been of after 7pm since Saturday as it's too bad to drive in it gets a bit boring - but fun at work.......I went in on Monday I started at 4pm, bus was late so got there at 4.20pm..........checked the buses website at 4.30pm & shop was closed at 6pm I was supposed to be there 'til 10pm soooooooooo woooooooooooo BUT I had to stand in the cold & wet or an hour to sit at work for an hour FOR NOTHING!!! Lol

Well thats my moan over with...........Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo it's Wednesday & my day off but that also means a new FAB challenge at Creative Inspirations!

This week we have the theme of Christmas Decorations NO Cards Allowed!! I struggled on this challenge I think he snow has taken my mojo But I was in the £ shop & saw these mega cute mini Candy Canes & thought "Awwwwwww I MUST Have these" I have another idea for a couple so "Ssssssshhhhhh" it's a secret!!!

For my DT inspiration I made a Candy Cane holder - as the cany canes are so weee they might get lost, so I thought it would be good to have a holder for them, I used my nesties & Magnolia Candy Cane stamp, colored with pro markers & clear 99p Merry Christmas Stamp! I do hope you will all pop over & join in with us...visit us HERE as we have a BRILLIANT prize ....

Ok as i's a cold & snowy, & miserable morning here in Newcastle I have something to cheer you up & get you moving & shaking, my new favourite song

Creative Inspirations - Walking Along in a Winter Wonderland

Good Morning Everyone! Today is Wednesday which means only 1 thing a FAB new challenge over on Creative Inspirations our New theme is Winter Wonderland. Now I struggled with this as I didn't want to make a card..........I knew what I wanted & it didnt turn out right so off it went into the bin & then on attempt 7 this came together, still not what I had in mind BUT I liked it!

My card stock is a lovely powerdy blue from the paper mill, aceat has been embossed with cuttlebug snowflakes embossing folder, ribbon from my stash, Winter scene & Tilda ice-skating are both Magnolia & have been colored with Pro Markers. On the top of the box is a BIG snowflake which was cut with Cuttlebug die & COVERED with Stardust Stickles.
Inside the box is a little bag with Chocolate Snowballs. Once you have eaten the snowballs I thought it might then be used to add a little batery operated tea-light candle......what do you think??

I'm entering my box into a few other challenges too, which are:
Totally Tilda - Icy Colors
Bunny Zoe's - Christmas NOT a card
Sir Stampalot - Christmas Traditions, snowball fights & ice-skating is VERY traditional!
