Sparkle and Shine for the CCC!

 Hello Everyone, hoping everyone is well and keeping cosy.

The last two weeks have gone by so quickly and it's time for the Girls from the Christmas Card Club to show their latest creations.

This time the theme is Sparkle and Shine, here is what I've come up with,


Meet Starr, she is one of the new Fairies from Lavinia Stamps, she is just gorgeous, Coloured with Kuretake Clean Colour pens and gel pens, with lots of sparkle. The sentiment is also one of the new stamps. Background is one of the Scene Scape papers, really handy when your short of time.

Sadly, the Christmas Card Club is coming to an end, we have only

another two cards left to make. The membership has fairly dwindled over the years for one reason or another. I know I'm finding it difficult to create cards, and the commitment, although only a fortnight,  sometimes  it difficult to keep up. So everyone was in agreement to call it a day. I've enjoyed being part of the club as Christmas cards are my favourite kind of cards to make, and it's a great team to be part of. Things change though.

Thank you for all the lovely comments on my last card, you are so very kind.

That's me for now, take care and see you soon,

This is a fabulous stamp and your combination of background and sparkle have created a wondrous card.
It is sad regarding the CCC but I have been struggling to meet deadlines lately too.

Hello Kate, your new fairy looks lovely. Such a gorgeous sparkly card. I feel bad about pulling out from the club last year but
I just couldn’t commit to making a card even just once a fortnight. My immune system has deteriorated so badly now,. Nothing life threatening just constant little health problems that it can’t cope with And sends it overboard. ie. styles, blood poisoned toe, cracked knuckles. Reacted badly to the Covid jab again this year . Hope your faring ok. It has turned a bit warmer here today so fingers are moderately warm. Hugs Mrs A.
