Christmas cards

 Hello there,

I hope you are all well, keeping safe from the horrible virus. Hopefully the vaccine will make it a much better year next year.


So, Christmas cards. I always have great intentions of being on top of my Christmas cards well before now but as usual I failed. Even making a card a month for CAS Christmas Challenge should have given me the inspiration to get into gear but alas, I'm still last minute.

I've spent the last week frantically putting things together and I think I'm on top of things. These are my first batch of multiple makes,


I love making cards in non traditional colours and these papers from an Artilicious CD are perfect for this.

The merry Christmas die is a new one that I treat myself to from Alexandra Renke and comes in two parts. I had great fun raiding the snippets box for the right coloured scraps of card. Although the construction is a bit time consuming (for me) I love the end result.

Some snowflakes from various die companies cut from coloured glitter card and some sequins to finish and they're done.


I had to wait for days for a day that wasn't grey and so dull I almost needed the lights on before I could take a photograph and I'm afraid this is the result for the only solo card I photographed. It's a bit blurry but as they are all on their way to their new owners I couldn't take another pic. My apologies.


I'll be back in a couple of days with my other batch. Thanks for popping in and stay safe
