1st Card Challenge of 2014

Hi,
Happy New Year.  Hope you had a happy holiday season.  We had a lovely time - I feel that all the hard work was definitely worth it.  I had a new camera from my OH - no, I haven't taken the photo below with it, I still have to find time to actually learn how to use it.  I am looking forward to it, hopefully I will take more photos and post more often.
 
This is my first card challenge of the year.  The inspiration came from a sketch over at 52{Christmas} Card Throwdown.  First time I have joined in and I thoroughly enjoyed it.  Great sketch and brilliant inspiration from the DT. 
 
 
I am determined to get my cards made earlier - I did really well last year at the beginning and it all went down hill once the summer came.  I am planning a day on my gift tags tomorrow - I have a little rule that I make my gift tags in January and then put them away with the Christmas decorations.
 
Hope you are well and smiling, and the weather isn't too harsh where you are.
Thank you for reading.
Hugs
Kim M

    I'm so glad that you joined in with our first sketch challenge for 2014, and what a fab Christmas card! Love the papers. Great idea about the tags, I did get round to making some this year, but it would be better not to have to do them last minute! Thanks for playing along
