I had a pile of plain cards in my stash from a frebbie gift in an order sent to me so for the
1st card I used an embossing folder and design paper die cut to fit the panel. The flower and ivy leaf were made using plain white copy paper coloured with distressed inks. The flower layers were diped in Embossing powder whilst still wet and then dried with the heat gun. Beads were threaded onto red cord and the Merry Christmas stamped and cut out.
Entering this into the following challenges.
Do You stack Up: Stripes.
Divas By Design: Merry Christmas.
Creative Belli: Must have Christmas on your Card.
2nd , 3rd and 4th cards I went to town on flourishes, glitter and Inka Gold. A girls gotta do what a girls gotta do!
Card 5 pre printed christmas cut out and wording with a shrink plastic button covered in glue and glitter for the top of the tree and and twirly corners (which Fluff didn't know I had).
Card 6 using design papers, another flourish and a christmas bauble made from good old shrink plastic.
It took me the rest of the day to clear up but perhaps my 'C' word isn't so bad after all!!!

Verrrry nice. You put so much effort into your cards. I do recycled ones, you know, cut up last years to make this years. lol. Not that imaginative but a bit towards saving the planet. Well, thats my excuse. I really love the roses, might have a go at that sometime although it doesn't sound easy. Mmm.
Thank you Mrs A - happy christmas!
