The Blue Bird of.....scariness??

I have a pretty blue bird in a silver cage.....

He's supposed to be a Christmas decoration actually. Pretty isn't he?
There's just one problem.......
Halloweeeeeeeeeeeeeeen's a comin'. And pretty glitter and blue feathers just won't do it.
So pretty Blue Bird is getting a make-over.

It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like......

Well, no, not really. Christmas is just under 3 months away. That's a quarter of the year. Not exactly tomorrow. But yesterday I was in a large department store and yep, they had the Christmas trees and decorations all out on display already. Wow, it's like wishing the year away isn't it.

We scrappers and card-makers on the other hand have every excuse to get in there early with the Christmas craft spirit. Cards need to be made and layouts planned, so the earlier we get our hands on Christmas goodies the better.

So time to get another Christmas range on display. Not to be outdone by the Big Shops, I have Christmas.....with GLITTER!!

How cute are these double-sided glitter papers? Glittered on one side with glitter highlights that don't lose their glitter. And how about these glittered die-cut papers..?.....

We'll be adding more and more Christmas goodies over the next few weeks. You can find them all in Santa's Scrap Room.
