A large crochet project finished, so time for some card making

 Jingle Belles challenge - "Twas the Sketch before Christmas

Rummaged around and found some patterned papers that would go together, then in the leftovers pile I found the die cuts for the sentiment and a circle - together they looked like an ornament -  so I went with this theme and stamped and coloured some onto white card and assembled the pieces to match the sketch - finished off with a die cut sprig and gold thread for a hanger







My second card, was an easy one... this front panel was in my stash... the background colours are much deeper and the silver embossing shinier and all I needed to do was add two layers to frame the panel and finish off with a stamped sentiment...  Perfect for week 4 of


Final card fits with two challenges:

Stamped this lovely floral bunch and watercoloured with Distress Inks, added a darker purple layer to frame the image and attached to a purple card.


Thanks for stopping by my blog, have a wonderful day  --- Cheers Robyn

This is my completed Hooked on Sunshine Small Ripples rug

  4. What a truly lovely version of Stephanie's sketch! I love the way you've made the sentiment circle into a bauble and then "hung" it from the branch with the others... so cool and so clever!. Thanks for joining our Jingle Belles fun this fortnight!
