Hello Everyone, what a lovely sunny day we've had here, I hope you have had too. It's another weekend and time once again for the Christmas Card Club girls to show their creations and this time it's our Shaz that has chosen the theme and it's cards showing a Winter Scene.
Again, I found some old stash from a magazine that had loads of winter scenes, so I made quite a few cards. Here we go;
I added papers to the background and lots of sparkle, other than that it was just a sticking down job. I've kept them flat for posting, as the postage is horrendous.
My final card is an upcycled one;
I really liked this topper, I love the mono tones so I just added black glitter card and stamped snowflakes in the background. A splash of red with the bow. I've added some gems and glitter.
I hope these will do Shaz, thank you for the challenge, I enjoyed it and of course I've used up some stash I've had for years.
Whilst I've been typing up this post I've also been watching the Big Bear Stakeout, brilliant documentary about Grizzly Bears in Alaska, what incredible animals, and some super camera work of them. Mind you it's had work being a bear, especially for the mothers with cubs finding plenty to eat before the winter sets in. A very interesting programme , with lots of humorous moments, when the bears were fishing in the falls for the salmon. Maybe some of you caught the show.
Well, this is a scheduled post for tomorrow, so remember and have a look at what the other girls create.
I've succumbed to Alistair's cold, so I'm feeling miserable tonight, doped to the eyeballs with paracetamol so I'm hoping it clears up soon.
Thank you all so much for your visits and lovely comments. Take care of yourselves and see you soon,

I hope you feel better soon Kate, these spring colds are awful and set you up feeling rough for the start of the better weather.
Gorgeous set of cards though, what beautiful scenes you have used, I love them.

Beautiful cards, Lovely snowy images
OMG I am a bad girl and I love your cards! Ok love the monochrome which just gives a nice peaceful but Christmassy scene. Sorry to hear you have a cold but I hope you rebound quickly
What lovely cards especially love that bottom one. So sorry you have got the cold, hope you both feel better soon x
Your cards are so elegant and beautiful Kate, good to have them one layer as you say the postage is awful. Although I think we are not the most expensive country for postage. Still a lot though.
I'm sorry to hear your "succumbed" to the dreaded cold. I hope you're better soon.
