A Christmas Dressy tag from Dressy Girl Bettina

There is only two more days until Christmas, at least here in Norway where we celebrate the 24th, and not on Christmas day. I thought it would be nice to add a little dressy tag to someone you care about. You can write a lovely message on the back as it's not covered up. 

Bettina here today and I have a little tag inspiration for you today with this lovely digi called Happy Little Christmas star. Don't you just love her?? I've coloured her up with promarkers, added som sparkle and snowflakes too just to give a little chilled effect. You can even find more of these little cuties here in the All Dressed Up shop!!

Have a Merry Christmas everyone!!

Snowy inspiration from Dressy Girl Viv.

Hiya friends!

It's almost time for the man in the suite to visit!!

Love this time of year to make my favourite kind of cards.

I keep saying I'll make them all year round, but never do. LOL

Anyway, I have a card I hope will inspire you if you still have cards to make.

I LOVE this snowman. He's SO happy it's snowing!

(I'm a snow-aholic too)!

You can buy him for a measly £1.75!!!!

That's about ONE DOLLAR American!!! BARGAIN!

You can see him HERE in the Etsy shop of our fabulous illustrator Wendy Burns.

I coloured him with Copics and embellished the frame with some Marianne Dice cut holly leaves.

The DP is from a pad called 'Handmade Holiday', by Simple Stories.

(I believe it's discontinued which is a great shame, 'coz I love it).

It took me half an hour to put together and that included the colouring!

I think that's some kind of record for me!

Well, I hope you enjoyed your visit to the All Dressed Up blog today.

Take a look around if you're new. Put your feet up, get a brew and enjoy!

Have a great week!

It's Snowing !

Ok so it isn't snowing...yet, but it certainly is on today's inspirational. 

This is one of the fab new images that are available in the shop, and I couldn't resist colouring him up. 

What do you think ?

I have coloured him with Copics & Spectrum Noirs, he was so fun to colour...and I love that little Robin ! 

Don't forget our current challenge. 

We are also having a giveaway on our Twitter.
