Yes, I know it's a bit early to be panicking about it, but I thought I was doing quite well with Christmas cards so far this year... Then I got a couple of big-ish orders, counted up what I'd made already and realised I need to get cracking quick!
So here's a simple one using a cute LOTV pre-coloured die cut image, with some gorgeous new Bo Bunny papers. Apologies in advance for the Christmas zone that my blog's likely to become for a while!
Items Used
Elegant Edge card blank - Craftwork Cards
Pre-coloured image - LOTV
Papers - Bo Bunny Blitzen - MCH
Nestabilities square & scalloped square dies
Memory Box Crystal Snowflake die - MCH
Martha Stewart snowflake punch
MeiFlower Coffee Mix pearls - MCH
Stickles in Stardust - MCH
I'm entering my card for the following challenges
Papertake Weekly - all creatures great & small
Lili's Little Fairies - Christmas card for the boys
Creative Card Crew - birds
Oldie But a Goodie - inspired by a song (Let It Snow)
(the image was bought & not used last Christmas so is older than 6 months)
I've been called into school tomorrow morning, to discuss an incident involving some sort of school 'helper' who hurt Morgan on purpose... it sounds like some silly idea of a joke but he's really hurt Morgan's hand. The pupil support staff and head teacher seem to be taking it seriously so we'll see what's going to happen tomorrow :o(
Hope you all have a lovely evening!

Gorgeous card Lisa. Love that sweet image. I'm busy using the cute squares I've had for a while and I'm sure I'll have to buy some of those new ones.
Poor Morgan, hope his poor hand's not too sore. Can't think why a "helper" would hurt a little boy like that. Glad it's being taken seriously!
