My First (and only) Christmas Card

Off to Vicky Stampers this morning so I needed to make a Christmas Card as we all are asked to take one and we have a kind of 'swap'.  Not a clue what to do, tried a couple of ideas - didn't work - so settled on using my die cuts.  Here is my card for the swap:


Using one of my all time favourites, the Poinsettia by Spellbinders, I cut one of each size, sparkled them up on the edges and put them together with a little pinch down the centre of each petal/leaf.  Then a sprig of holly and a doily from Cheery Lynne and we were ready to assemble our easel card.

Still in the mood I made a birthday card for a friend of mine - a week late I might add.


Two Spellbinders Frames
and my favourite image

That's all for now I have things to get ready - thank goodness the weather is a lot better this morning, that freezing fog was terrible yesterday.

Hi Neet, well if you are only going to do one, then make it fabulous - and you certainly have done that. Your card is stunning! I wish I was your swap partner today.....

The card for your friend is equally gorgeous, there is something special about white on white I think. The spellbinder dies are beautiful, as is the image. Two very beautiful cards. Hope you had fun today. Hugs, Anne x
