Christmas 20 . . .

 I have another Christmas card to share and here it is . . .

  


I wish to enter these challenges . . . 

ABC Christmas Challenge O for Off the Edge: which I did when stamping

I repeat stamped the Clarity Crafts A6 Joy Filigree Swirls stamp across A5 watercolour card using Versafine Clair Rainforest ink.  I coloured the stamped images with Sentimentally Yours Watercolour Brush Pens.  I trimmed this and glued onto A5 card.

I die cut the Creative Expressions sentiment die using Sizzix texture card.  I die cut the Elizabeth Crafts Wreath die three times using Sizzix glitter die.  I adhered all three Wreaths together.  

I die cut John Next Door Holly with pearlescent card and Sizzix texture card.  The Poinsettias were die cut with Sizzix glitter and texture card.  I adhered the wreath and sentiment directly onto the stamped panel.  I adhered the holly onto the wreath and layered the poinsettia's which I added to the wreath. 

Finishing touches were added I have caught up with my Christmas card quota again.  Back soon x
