Hi Crafters,
It's been a lovely couple of days here in my part of Norfolk, bright, dry, a little chilly but beautiful. The Autumn leaves are turning and the squirrels in my back garden are gathering and burying nuts for the winter, it's a lovely sight.
So with that I'm here to share a Christmas card! Ha, ha!
Well you know we have to keep ahead of the game if we are to have enough made before the big day :)
Our challenge this week is 'V' for Vertical
So we'd like to see your vertical projects and cards for Christmas, take a peek at the creations from the rest of the Design Team HERE for some inspiration if you are stuck.
I have created a DL card, a very clean and simple DL card for my usual style. I had a bit of trouble leaving all that white space but managed to walk away eventually.

Lovely card Lorraine
A really elegant card I love the white space and minimal embellishments
Fabulous verticle card and love the embossing folder you used.x
A really lovely CAS card Lorraine. Haven't made a DL card for so long. I seem to favour 6" square or 5" x 7" these days. It makes a nice change. Hugs Christine xx
I know what you mean Lorraine stepping away from the card....you have the perfect balance with the embossing and the embellishments and the elegant shape of the DL card....xxxxx
A pretty creation as always, apols for the tardy blogging on my part but slow going at this end.

It really is a beautiful card Lorraine. I love the little bells and that lovely embossing folder is the perfect background. Barbxx
I can't remember the last time I made a DL card, this one is gorgeous. I love the embossing folder you've used and the wonderful tiny bells.

Think this is a really elegant card and it is nice to see a DL card for a change. Nicola x
I have to admit to being quite a fan of the long skinny cards, although I never seem to make them myself anymore I do love to see them. This one is fab and that embossing works so well here :) xx
Hi Loraine, what a beautiful card, lovely CAS design, and I love the bells die, Kate x
