Sketch Challenge at 52CCT

By
It's sketch week at 52CCT and it's also my month to choose the challenges - here is the sketch I designed especially for you all


and here is the first of my cards


This is paper punched pine fronds with paper punched poinsettias (Boho Blossoms) made into a Christmas wreath.
Here is my second card - it uses a retired stamp set called Snow Flurries and the sentiment from Wondrous Gift.


Now this one is special - not because it's for the 52CCT challenge blog but because it is also for this month's  Technique Tuesday link Party challenge -a stamped punch window - over on my good friend Mynnette's blog

Mynnette  is also my partner on 52CCT so please do pop over and take a look at her Christmas cards too.
I shall leave you with a close up of my stamped punch window and I hope I shall be popping around to your blogs soon to take a look at your Christmas cards - Jacqueline xx

    The wreath looks fantastic made with punched details, and the blues work really well with the aperture. What beautiful Christmas cards!

Yikes - I'm a bit late posting today, but when I got into my studio this morning I had forgotten that it looked like this I had a big family lunch yesterday and 'cos our house is so small, I have to keep stuff moving from room to room in order for there to be enough space. So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr...
