It's Cold Outside.
Another up cycled Christmas card for the ever growing pile. I liked the soft greys and pastels on this card and cut the original card down using my largest fancy circle die. I had this grey hexagon 12 x 12 card stock that had been sent to me ages ago from America in some candy I had won. The pattern reminded me a little of snowflakes and when I placed the cut image on top it just seemed to go so well with it . The sentiment is from another cut up card and the ribbon from some more candy I had won last year. Pearls from my stash which compliment the glitter on the original image.

I really like this one. The colours are just perfect and what a good job, to recycle old cards. The panet takes a big sigh and says thank you.
Have a good weekend

Eine wirklich schöne Karte.
Danke für deine Teilnahme bei CSAYL. Liebe Grüße Jenny
Christmas is going to be such a breeze for you this year with all these wonderful cards all ready to go. Interesting to read about your ventures with the bamboo plants. It took me a bit of researching to find that they have a certain life span. Our plant was such a lovely plant and we were sad to see it die. Everyone that visited asked what type of tree it was. :-)
This is such a beautiful design Mrs A, the soft pastels are perfect together and I love the added sparkle. Hope you're managing to keep warm in this miserable weather :) Donna x
Beautiful! Thanks for playing at Craft Your Passion!
