Hello to Everyone, I hope all is well with you and you're enjoying the weekend.
Not raining, not boiling hot sunshine so I've got a bit done in the garden and Alistair is cutting the grass, or to be more accurate the moss and dandelions.
Anyhoo, it's once again time for the Christmas Card Club girls to show their latest challenge cards and this time it was Grandmargaret's choice which was to use two patterned papers. I have to say this did challenge me as I don't really use papers now, hate all the measuring and matching papers, but I managed three,
All the images and the sentiment are from Crafty Individuals and coloured with Caran d'Ache Luminance coloured pencils, lots of glitter and gems. The sentiment card uses papers from Crafty Individuals too, I added a little bow and a charm. I can't remember when I last used charms or bows if it comes to that.
Thank you Margaret for the challenge, I hope these will do.
Now I must get round to visiting your blogs, I've just not managed to keep up with the commenting in that last few days.
Thank you all so much for your visits and lovely comments, I do appreciated the time you take to do this.
That's me for now, take care of yourselves and enjoy the rest of your weekend,
A really great set of Christmas cards for our theme this week. I'm particularly drawn to the top one with the sweet little girls under the umbrella, there is something about that image that I really love.

Beautiful cards Kate, love each one of them and love the image in the first one....take care. xx
ReplyDeleteI would struggle as well Kate, I can spend ages looking at DP's and still not be happy, hence like you rarely use them, but you did a great job here and that's is probably my favourite CI image.

ReplyDeleteThere is nothing wrong with moss, it doesn't grow as fast as grass!

Beautiful Christmas cards and I have to say that the first one is one of my all time favourite CI stamps, I never tire of it xx
ReplyDeleteI love the umbrella kids! There is a salt company in the US that uses a little girl in a yellow slicker with a big umbrella on their packaging. All of the cards are wonderful.
