Christmas treeline

 

Hi everyone, I thought it was about time that I started on some Christmas cards.

I can't believe how quickly the months are flying by!

The theme at ABC Christmas is U for unusual Christmas colours or V for velvet.

I had some backgrounds made with Lindy's magicals that I thought would work as Christmas colours that were non traditional, so have gone with the U option.

I've had this tree die for quite a while and this is it's first outing, so I'm also visiting

 Darnell's NBUS Challenge

Krafty Chicks has a Christmas theme.

It's anything goes Christmas at the Merry Little Christmas Challenge

Supplies:

Penny Black Christmas wonderland die; Tattered Lace sentiment die; Lindy's magicals; Crafts 4 U stitched rectangle die.

Thanks for visiting,

Dots for Seize the Birthday

 

Hi everyone, it's time for a new challenge at Seize the Birthday, and Shirley has chosen

 a dots theme for us.

or you can play along with our anything goes birthday option too.

My team mates and our party guest Fran have loads of inspiration for you, so I hope you can play along.

I had some mica spray stain backgrounds in my bits box and decided to have a play with some 3D embossing folders. I need to play with these a more often as I have lots!

This one is by Altenew....

The stars were diecut from some scraps too.

Here's a closer look at the shimmer.
