For those following the recent Christmas saga and debate of sorts going on around here, you may have spied a challenge thrown down to my handsome fella Tim by Karen in the comments section yesterday….
If you want to go back to the beginning of the story, start here, then read the four or so posts following that and you will soon be up to speed.
Well I mentioned the idea to Tim yesterday, to which he replied “I can do that”, then proceeded to spend the evening at the computer doing nothing of the sort.
I suspect that it was always part of his plan to go about his little challenge uninterrupted, and as it turns out, he waited until I was in bed, then set about cutting and sticking and punching and assembling and glittering until he came up with the following that was perched atop my craft desk this morning…
Here’s a different angle so you can fully appreciate the 3D-ness of his little tree…
You will notice that he went straight for the Glorious Green, if you don’t mind! There is also the added detail of some cotton wool ’snow’ and glittery star.
He walked into the room this morning, spied his little tree on the shelf where I was photographing it and announced “it feels so Christmassy in here!”
I feel as if I have been beaten at my own game! Perhaps I should pay more attention in those karate practise sessions so that we can re-level this little playing field here…

What a hoot! Doug thinks he’s done a brilliant job. I love the watermark too it’s just perfect.
So, So, So, So Funny – all this banter over the past few days has made me LOL soooo many times.
Now that’s a tree!! I love the cotton wool snow, the upside down star and most of all the watermark.
Tim – you can now add Master of Craft to your belt
Hi Sarah! Don’t worry-Your “leaf” card still wins IMO!! (Thanks for a good laugh over the last couple of days- have enjoyed the saga!!)
Oh oh oh!!! I think i’ve pulled a muscle from laughing so hard!!! Great job on the tree Tim.
Hey!
Well done on the challenge, Tim! I’m rather impressed that you entered the craft room and that got into the crafty challenge! Love the Christmas tree (it is VERY Christmassy) and love the watermark too!
You have been a very busy blogger this week, Sarah! You have kept us very well entertained this week!!

Doesn’t look a leaf at all..xx
Hahahahahaha! Fantastic!! Oh I know where to go for a good giggle, thanks Sarah! *hugs* Now just noting to myself to ensure my hubby has a look, hehe. The cotton wool……simply fab
If nothing else, Tim’s answer to the challenge gave me a good laugh. This has been the best blog reading. Love Tim’s watermark & the cotton ’snow’. He is a cheeky one. I can see why you guys have had 8 happy years together, and if you keep up like this, will be sure to last another 60 or so.
Thanks for the fun,
