Christmas Card Club Challenge #8 - Red Berries

Hi Crafters,

Happy Saturday to you all!
Let the weekend begin!

I'm a day early as usual sharing my CCC card on the theme of 'Red Berries' which was chosen by our lovely Valery.

This was a very quick card and I feel as if I have cheated a bit, it is just a very sweet decoupage image from Crafty Creations, a few mats and layers with a little white glitter for the snow. My customers have been asking for flatter cards, due to postage costs and so this limits the amount of embellishing I can do. Never mind, I get to indulge myself on family and friends cards that can be hand delivered.


Hopefully the rest of our ladies will be posting their creations tomorrow but I have another DT card for Sunday, so pop back then and use the links in the tab above to visit their blogs.

See you then,

Lorraine

  3. Super card Lorraine. Robins seem synonymous with Christmas and yet they are in the garden all year round. And it's snowing heavens hard as I write this so very in keeping with teh Christmas theme ... lol. Like you the majority of my cards will be flat becauuse the postage is just so high. I do go to town on those for family and close friends though. Hugs Christine x

  23. Stunning image, (of course I love this robin perched in the gorgeous holly). Love the way you've done the holly & berry spotlighted in the circle too. The glitter shows well as icy snow on Robin's branch too. Congrats on your win over at Culliesocks! TFS & Hugs
