3 Villiages.

Internet still playing up so I'm running late.

Latest news is that they are still working on it!!

Time once again for the girls in

the Christmas Card club to show 

their creations. 

It was the turn of Rita to set the theme

and her choice was Village Scene.

This sent me scuttling off to my 

box of  used Christmas cards as I knew 

that I had several card fronts

 that would be suitable to use. 

I found 3 with village scenes but as I

couldn't decide which to use

(and my pile of Christmas cards is a bit low)

I give you 3  very  different villages.

You choose!!

The first village scene I'm calling Modern.

I made a sort of envelope style opening for the card base

which I have held closed using Faux buttons 

and bakers twine.

Blue  pearlescent card stock, Anita's sentiment

and the silver edging were from my stash.

Buttons made using  Joy Crafts die cut.

Entering into the following challenges:

A Gem Of A Challenge #144 More than one fold.

Scribble and Scrap #144 Anything goes.

Me and  Mine  #  Beat the rush.

Crafty Hazelnuts Extra # Anything goes.

My second Scene I'm calling  Traditional

and is a Tent fold shape .

I cut the scene up into 3 oblongs and then 

adhered to a red backing card leaving a small gap 

between each panel which I think gives the 

appearance of looking through a window.

I used gold pearlescent card to make the card shape.

Bow and pearls from my stash along with the 

gold sentiment sticker.

Entering into the following challenges:

Country View Crafts # Simply scenic.

Sister Act #105 Anything goes.

Jo's Scrapshack #87 Anything goes.

And Lastly my Medieval Scene.

I have had this card in my box for yrs and yrs

Many more than I care to remember.

Waiting and waiting for the right moment.

The scene is actually only half of the card.

I still have the other half saved !!

I have used yellow pearlescent card for the front 

and used my Spellbinder Labels twenty-eight

to die cut the window frame from the centre.

As the picture was a tad short, I cut the discarded 

insert down and used to create the base

for the sentiment thus covering up the slight

gap left at the bottom.

Black pearls was all I felt  was needed 

to complete the card.
