Christmas Challenge Time

It's 52 {Christmas} Card Throwdown challenge time again, Mynnette has chosen a lovely theme for us this week come and take a look


I love wreath cards and had so much fun making this one to show you today


I really must get some new Christmas stamps as I keep going back again and again to this set - Pines and Poinsettias - it is lovely though isn't it and perfect for this kind of card.
I have stamped the pine cone stamp repeatedly in a circle and then stamped some more on separate card stock, cut them out and attached them with 3D foam pads to fill the gaps.
Colours used are Creamy Caramel, Lucky Limeade and Poppy Parade.
Don't forget Mynnette is giving away a prize this month so please do pop over and have a go - my fellow team mates have also got some dazzling examples to show off there too - see you soon - Jacqueline xx

    Your wreath is amazing! Great idea to stamp a few more to fill in the gaps and I like that your sentiment is in the middle of your wreath.

    Jacqueline this wreath is so wonderful!! You are far more patient than I to cut out those pieces - but wow was it worth it!

    Wowsers, I'm in awe Jacqueline, what detailed stamping not to mention fussy cutting! But all that work was totally worth it - your wreath card is fabulous!

    Hmmmmm, I've loved every card I've see you make with the P&P set - but I still think you need a snowman stamp to ring the changes!

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.
