Mid week little extra...'New to me.....'

The first little extra dare of the new year is linking in with our main dare last Friday- still on the 'New' theme - think of it as a 'double dare!':)



We want to see your Crafty Christmas Presents ! Make a card using a new toy you had for Christmas, or in fact any crafty goodies that you received. Its a great chance to try out all your new toys/papers/embellishments! We'd love to see what crafty presents Santa dropped into your stocking....



Here's a couple from the team to hopefully inspire you !



So leave us a comment with a link to your blog and we will come over and check out your lovely presents and creations!
