Christmas Cards: Poinsettia Bundle

Here’s a card using non traditional colours for you today – I love blues and purples for some alternative Christmas cards. 

For this card I’ve used just the dies from the bundle.  I love how they cut and also have some embossing for the petals.  Those pearl centres are so so pretty.  More details of the products used below.  

I hope you are keeping well.   I’ve taken a few days off creating to get stuck into some big time sorting and purging at my place.  I’m part way through attacking my email inbox.  Read a method somewhere that I’m trying – I’ve moved everything except July/Aug to another ‘to sort’ folder and now I’ve sorted that into ‘from’ category and am working my way through deleting and sorting the ones I need to hang onto into a few folders.  I’m up to M – wish me luck!  Are you a tidy inbox person or a complete mess like me? 

We’ve also got piles and boxes and more piles and more boxes of assorted paperwork, memorabilia and junk here from the study and assorted other spots.  I was hunting through it all to try to find a travel journal I’d kept on a London/Paris holiday a few years ago so I could use it for some scrapbooking.  The amount of mess to sort through is a bit overwhelming – aagghh!  So decided it was way overdue to stop procrastinating and just dig in and grab a pile.   Starting is one of the biggest steps isn’t it.   Found a few treasures along the way that brought a smile to the day.  

Good luck with any projects you’ve got on the go at the moment.  I seem to alternate every few days between getting nothing productive done at all, and having a burst of energy.  Trying to just go with the flow and make the most of the bursts of energy when they happen.  I hope you are keeping well and staying in good spirits.  

Take care,  Sue
