Holly and Ivy for The Christmas Card Club!

Hello Everyone and I hope you are all well and enjoying your weekend. I hope you weather is better than ours, gosh it's rained well today.

Time once again for the ladies of the Christmas Card Club to share their cards and this time it cards showing Holly and Ivy.  Now I'm not sure whose choice this was, can't find a name on the list, but anyway here is mine;
This is a very Hunkydorry Topper with Holly and Ivy around the door and on the wreath.
The background card and sentiment are also from Hunkydory.
I've added some Holly Leaves cut with a Di'Sire die and I used green sparkly felt, doesn't show though and put a little robin on a tree branch, also from Di'sire. A little glitter and a couple of gems and that's that. A very traditional image and colours.

I'm going to schedule this post for tomorrow when the CCC goes live. 

Do have a look at what the other club members do, there is always beautiful cards from them.

So just before I go, I want to thank everyone who visited and left a comment, I love to get them and always enjoy reading them.

Enjoy what remains of your weekend, and see you soon,

Oh I love this image Kate, just how I imagine Christmas should be with a sprinkling of snow and a warm cosy house to retreat to with family and loved ones. A fab card.

Oh Kate - I am afraid I have been so far behind in looking a commenting. I just cannot keep up!
Your card is so pretty and full of Christmas - I will miss snow. I love to see it falling and it is so quiet outside when we have a good snow. But now that we live in Florida I will not see anymore snow!!

This festive door looks just like it should at this season! Very welcoming, with the bough over the door, the tree outside with the cheery robin to welcome vistors. Love the holly sprig and this is just so very pretty. Well done! Have a good week, hope you have pleasant weather. Heard it is snowing in some part of Scotland. Getting ready for the season, no doubt.TFS & Hugs
