Three Little Cards and A Night to Remember

Hello!! 
Oh my goodness it's nearly Christmas...
I've been baking today, shopping a little and mailing the last of my cards...

 I have 3 little cards to share, each much the same but with different colours, that I made for 3 of my girlfriends who I meet for lunch once a month


The first 2 were done with distress inks and water...


... The last one with dye ink and a mix of white paint and water


The glitter coated wreaths and the deer were cut on my Cameo and the sentiments were computer generated
...
I have to tell you that the night we spent on the cruise ship was AMAZING! I loved it! The food was unbelievable and I'm sure I put on half a stone just that night haha! 
Once we had been shown to our cabin, we went for afternoon tea in the observatory ... Oh my, those little cakes and pastries and beautiful finger sandwiches washed down with Darjeeling tea...

Later we saw the show before going into dinner ... 4 courses and each one perfection ... I couldn't finish everything though... Then it was back to the cabin to sit on the balcony for a short while before we hit the casino ... we were given £100 each in chips to play and came away with £400.
There was so much going on ... Singers, dancing, a piano room, bars and coffee areas where chocolates and huge cream cakes tempted... The temperature was so mild we even sat outside taking in the view of our lovely city with all the lights twinkling. It was a real night to remember....

Have a lovely day my friends

Hugs

This CAS at it's best. The background is perfect for the wreath and that darling die cut.

Hi Ros. I wanted you to know that I spent a some time looking at your blog yesterday. I am so impressed with your talent. I love how you do CAS especially. The light boxes are fabulous and I intend to try out your directions after the first of the year. As I have time I will be back again to look at some older posts. There is so much inspiration here.
