Another Christmas card - wow I have two now! I am determined though to get more organised this year and get more done before December. 
A great place to start is 


Here is my card


My layers are made using square dies with a scalloped edge. I placed one on top of the other but turned the bottom one at an angle to get the star shape.
Ornamental Pine was stamped on to a grey panel in Always Artichoke. It was then over stamped with Versamark ink and heat embossed with white embossing powder to give the pine needles a frosty look.
Pine cones were added on dimensionals and then dusted with Dazzling Diamonds glitter.

That's it for today - I hope you like my card. See you soon x

    Such a pretty card, I love your muted colours, with the sparkle in the centre giving a delicate feel. And a great use of layers to beautifully frame your focal panel. Thank you for sharing with us at the Christmas Card Throwdown, I hope we can continue to inspire you to grow your Christmas Card collection before December. Lucinda

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. I used the sketch from  52 Christmas Card Throwdown  - this is a brilliant Christmas challenge blog (I started it many years ago with Mynn Kitchen) and it’s a perfect way to get organised with Christmas crafting. Thank for stopping by today - see you soon - J xx
