Christmas Flowers

By
It's theme time over at 52 {Christmas} Card Throwdown and the theme is
CHRISTMAS FLOWERS
Here are my cards


The first card has been made using one of my Craft Stamper magazine freebies and it's been coloured using Stampin' Write markers - Poppy Parade and Pear Pizzazz. After being mounted on to squares of Crumb Cake I decorated the centres with some flat backed gems.


This card is a mish mash of die cuts and punches and a few silk leaves have been thrown in for good measure!
Please pop over to the blog to take a look and please pop over and visit my partner in crime - Mynnette - she's created something very special too.
Bye for now - Jacqueline xx

    Both cards are gorgeous - both so different! I love the CAS design for your first card - so nice to see these poinsettias (I've got one and not used it - yet!). Your second card is fab with so many lovely details.

    Thanks for starting up this challenge - I'm thoroughly enjoying it and getting Christmas cards too!

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

 I have decided to try and get on top of my Christmas cards early this year and so far it’s going well!!! Here is a card that has been made using the Sweet Gingerbread set - I love gingerbread houses and the stamps and matching dies are really cute.

Thank for stopping by today - see you soon - J xx
