Our brief for this weeks challenge was to use a Christmas image and incorporate an acetate feature.

I am a real home bird, I love nothing more than being at home. So the whole pandemic malarkey has played a little into my hands. Don't get me wrong I am fed up with it all now but it is has also been nice to be forced to slow down a little. I am one of those individuals that did not know how to sit still before all this. I literally charged from one thing to another. The lockdown has taught me to slow down, sit down and even how to colour.

I just had to have this digital stamp, by La La Land Crafts. I love comfy sweaters and think Marci looks great in hers.I have paired this with a tree and pumpkin from the Polkadoodles Autumn/Fall Bundle.

I actually put the sentiment banner on to cover up a blunder. So this has not turned out exactly how I hoped.
I had tried to put a bush where the banner is but it just did not look right at all, it looked more like where our daft mutt cocks his leg on my lamppost 

So I attempted to colour it back in as grass and just ended up with too much shadow so did the best I could with the sentiment banner.
