Another Christmas card!



Well I needed a distraction today as none of us had heard from DS2 for 9 days! This is very unusual for him! He managed to ring his FiancĂ© tonight so it's sighs of relief all round! As Diana said we will all sleep tonight! It's such a worrying time for us, will I ever get used to it!

Soo, I was pleased when my new stamps arrived late afternoon! From Chloe's Creative cards! HERE
The petals and the fir stamps.
 I stamped onto burgundy card with Versamark then heat embossed with gold embossing powder. I stamped the fir with Brilliance green Pearlescent Ivy. Sentiment is a stamp I have had for years stamped with Brilliance Pearlescent Crimson. I made an 8x8 card with AMD card stock. I cut an aperture with the large bauble nestie in my GC.
Snowflake is a Sizzix die. Bits from my stash!

I am entering my card in the following challenges.

LIM challenge 29 Theme "Things that move" Well it certainly does that!

Divas by design challenge 9 Christmas in August!

Totally Papercraft challenge 80 Christmas in August.

Thanks for calling
