Moving Along With The Times
... and this week it is the lovely Laurie who is hosting and she has chosen the fab theme of....
'Seeing Red'
So we want to see your creations using Red... it doesn't have to be a card... as long as we can see that you have followed the red theme...
We are sponsored this week by The Crafty Pad who gave us this sweet image and some gorgeous sentiments to use...

This little chappie is called 'Christmas Ted Posting Letter' and the Sentiment is from a set called 'Christmas Sentiment Tickets'....
With not feeling well... I've gone for a CAS card this week... I cut a strip of the bottom of Kraft Card Blank and used it as centre panel... the scrummy paper is from My Mind's Eye - 'Winter Wonderland' pad. I've used some wavy scissors to go down the sides and on the bottom of the panel to create a bit of texture... don't know why but this card was a real pain to photograph... and I'm still not happy with these photos... but I've taken so many and I'm really sick of tweaking them... so they will have to be ok LOL...
I've coloured this cute little ted with Promarkers and added some extra snowflakes with Viva Pearl 'White' Pen. Also added Star Dust Stickles for some snow and Christmassy Sparkle...
Hope you can hop on over to MAWTT for more details of the Challenge and to see my Teamies gorgeous creations... and can't wait to see all your fab entries!

Ooh Blogger is being a right pain for this post... what I type in Draft is not coming out correct in preview... it's changing the size of font and leaving gaps... I've had to type one paragraph in Largest Font for it to come out at normal size!! Arrggh... it drives me nutty... LOL
Did you see the first episode of The Paradise? I really enjoyed it - but wasn't too keen on Parade's End ... Benedict Cucumberpatch just isn't my cup of tea!! Loving Downton but I'm SO jealous of Mary! LOL - can't wait for the next episode - also thought WDYTYA was fascinating with Bill Roache - and roll on Strictly too - ah I'm in TV Heaven... !!!
Thanks for all your lovely comments... I really do appreciate you taking the time out to visit! 
Love and Hugs

What a treasure of a card. Love it, so cute and awesome colouring. The photo's look fine to me too. I am worried that you are still poorly, have you been back to the doctor's it shouldn't go on this long.
I am adoring Downton Abbey. Made even better as you know I went to Highclere Castle awhile back.

Hi Sue...love this card. Great image, so cute.

Oh i got this stamp from the crafty pad a long time ago but i think Debbie does only digital now.
Your card is lovely Sue! Love it.

Now I quite liked Parades End, but I watched it with hubby, so it was a good thing it was a bit more blokey. Benedict cumberbutton (or whatever) doesnt do it for me either..... my all time costume drama hero is Richard Armitage in North and South... oh swoon! :)
Have sky+ Paradise and also Downton Abbey - we like to watch em back to back ;) lol.
I still have season 2 of the Borgias to watch yet!
Anyhoo...... your card is so cute! Love the glittery snow and such a lovely contrast of colour against the kraft card too!
hugs
xxalisonx
Hope you're feeling better. Great CAS card; I simply can't do them. I try and it always looks so empty, so I keep on adding bellies. :-)I like the colour combo; kraft and red/white and the bear is very cute too!
Hugz,
Sandra
