When you make a conscious choice to be happy, no one can take it away from you because no one gave it to you: you gave it to yourself.

Seeing in the New Year!!

It's New Year's Eve! I love the start of a new year. A fresh start. A clean slate. Time to write up our diaries and calendars and look ahead. But before that there is always the excitement of waiting for those Big Ben bongs!

Over on the Polkadoodles Blog we have a new Digi Choosday Challenge for you. Why not pop over and join in. Maybe your new years resolution could be to join in with our challenges!!

 I love the thought of a New Year party, though I confess I'm always tucked up in bed long before midnight having had a quiet evening at home. So I decided to pretend I was hosting a party and designed a few items using the gorgeous Classic Hearts/Wedding collection to design an invite and a place card. I also used the fab Emma Canning Cute as a button image to make a bottle charm/hanging to be put on the person's favourite bottle or on their glass!


As you can see I added a real button, this adds weight to the charm. I just loved the idea of putting someones name on their glass/bottle!! 

Hope you all have an enjoyable evening and I hope to see you in the New Year!!
I shall be launch a blog candy thing as I'm nearing 200 followers so pop back to watch this space!!

Take care Zo xx

Happy New Year :-) Sorry I've been missing for a while - was down South over Crimbo and didn't get on the PC. This is such a cool idea - I love it - the colouring is stunning (as always) and I love the added touch of the real button - it looks fab xx
