Baubles for the CCC!
Hello to You All, and I hope your weekend is going well and you're enjoying it as beat you can.
We have had a week of fabulous weather, unheard of really here, it's usually raining at this time of the year, but I believe there's some low pressure coming in tomorrow so that will change.
Well, it's another fortnight over and time again for the Christmas Card Club Challenge and this time it's me who is choosing the theme, and I would love to see your cards with Baubles on them, or of course there is always Anything Goes, if you can't manage baubles.
My first card uses a Whimsy image and I've used Altenew Metallic Watercolour paints on Arches Watercolours paper after i heat embossed the stamp with Wow EP. It is brighter in real life, unfortunately the camera hasn't managed to capture the gorgeous colours. Next I mounted it on to Rose Gold mirror card then on to a turquoise card, finishing of with my little clear gems.
I just photographed these two little cards together as they are from the same sheet of paper from a very old Making Cards magazine. I loved the colours and added a little glitter to the baubles. The card with the rocking horse I made the background with Copic markers and added a border with my black pen. The sentiment on the single bauble card is from Clearly Besotted, again some tiny gems to finish., very simple.
Do look at the cards that the other ladies from the team create, they are always fabulous.
Thank you so much for your lovely comments on my last card, and I have to say that Dougie phone me the other day to thank me and said it brought a tear to his eye, wasn't that lovely, it's that kind of thing that makes it all worth while.
That's me for now, take care and keep safe,
I would like to enter my first card in to

Love the cards they are super. Mmm im wondering what day to cut the grass as I can see the low pressure on the weather app now!! Booo!!! Its been such good weather. Hazelxx
A lovely artsy trio of baubles. Such pretty colours . We only ventured out once on the oldies morning slot. The queue went right round the side of the shop, looped all round the car park and out of the back entrance. Most of the cars parked up were SUV’s. There are some pretty nifty seventy yr olds around . If It wasn’t for the social distancing I would have marched up to people queuing and demanded to know who their plastic surgeon was cause I sure as hell want to look 50yrs again too!! We didn ‘t queue. I couldn’t stay upright long enough even holding onto the trolly and The Doc needs to be within striking distance of a loo at all times!! Havn’t been out since, hence my hunter gatherer mode on the internet. I am about to something of interest on the ccc page so have a look tonight. Hugs Mrs A.
Thanks for a great theme -really love your makes too Kate...that rocking horse bauble is just lovely!!! Big hugs rachel xx
Love the cards especially your first one with the ribbon background. I KNEW Dougie would love your card Kate.
Keep safe and well.

Both are so pretty and I bet the first one pops with the colours. The other 2 look just as bright and cheery. We have seen snow and cold temps..blechhh.
A trio of beauties, Kate. I like them all but think my fave is that first one. So many baubles to colour and they look wonderful.
Lovely cheery cards Kate and yes the rain is on it's way apparently.

Love your bauble cards. The colors are lovely as well as the different designs. Glad you are well and staying safe. Making face masks now for family and friends, so stamping is on the back burner except my DT stuff.
Hugs

How are the Altenew paints, let me know what you think of the new lot.xx
These baubles look amazing, great cards, hugs Pops x
Hi Kate
Those metallic watercolour paints look amazing. They make for a really bright and beautiful card.
I just knew Dougie would appreciate his card. It was just perfect.
Our weather turned to rain her today .. .. but our gardens definitely needed it!
Take care and stay safe Kate.
Love Jules xx
Gorgeous baubles Kate and the single pink one is so delightful

All three cards are super pretty Kate and it is good too use up some bits and bobs, and they look great here, and your Whimsy baubles are gorgeous and I can imagine the shine will look wonderful in real life. It is always a shame that photos don't show shimmer and shine awfully well, apart from mirri, which flares and is totally annoying to photograph..lol, not complaining really..lol. x
Back with my official hat on. I like that you entered this card as it was my fave!
Thanks for taking part in the April Rudolph Days Challenge.
