Wish Upon A Star.

It is  the last day of Beccy Muirs A Month of Holiday Cards Challenge and here is my card for today.

Day 30 is to Do what You Love.  and use the stamps, colours, paper embellishments that you love to create one final card.
The cards that I most love to make are Joy fold cards so here is my card.  The images are pre coloured digis by 'Sassy Cheryl' from Paper Creator. The single snowman is called Once Upon A Star and the trio of snowmen 'Hanging Stars'. I have used a gold coloured wooden star attached with a  3D pad on the front to secure the flap shut.  The design paper is a freebie from Making Cards Magazine christmas Edition 2018. (I do like to use freebies where possible as it leaves me more pennies for the dearer must have items and when I do whether it be papers or digi images, list where they have come from and give credit to the suppliers/artists).

 This is the card opened up. I do also love to add the extra gift tag inside.
 Close up of the inside of the card.

A really super card with all the lovely star papers and a huge lovely snowman and then the added extra pals inside the card, great make.

Just a thought if you saved the money that you spent on the mags could't you use it against the dearer must have items?

Wow, what an awesome creation Valery!! The front of the card looks fabulous, I love the gorgeous snowman with his armload of gifts and the beautiful gold star you added. Love the little rhinestone detail.
Then I kept scrolling and saw how beautifully you'd done the inside too! What a treasure! This would be awesome for holding gift cards or money. Beautiful work.
Cheers,
Beccy

The Joy folding is really a beautiful layout, simple but so effective, especially with a pocket and tag as you have done! Great choice of paper, very festive, and the cute snowmen are so sweet and fun!

Thanks for explaining, and why not, just thought I was saving you money, good on Fluff. I think that Craft Mags prices have got too high, don't buy them any more'

Looking forward to seeing what sort of week you have!!!!
