Breaking News at 52 {Christmas} Card Throwdown

By
News item no. 1 - we have a new member on our design team. Her name Ruth and her blog is Flower Sparkle - I do hope you will pop over to her blog and welcome her.
News item no. 2 - we are also having a DT Call - you too could be joining Ruth, Mynnette and myself on the team.
And where is all this happening I hear you ask? ......... RIGHT HERE.

So - it's my month and I have this sketch for you to follow


And here is my card



I think my flash was a bit strong on this photo as the colours looks a bit washed out! I have again used my new set Pines and Poinsettias along with Poppy Parade, Blushing Bride and Lucky Limeade inks.

Don't forget to visit Mynnette's Blog too and I will see you soon - Jacqueline xx

    Thanks for popping by to see my card. I now have the supplies listed on there as well as a few more pictures that turned out well.
