Stunning cards, love the nativity scenes .xx ♥[aNNie]
Hi Lorraine...two stunning cards those backgrounds are perfect to show off that lovely die cut...fabulous xxxx
These are both beautiful. I really need to start thinking about Christmas cards, I just don't seem to have the mojo for it at the moment. But you're right, the year is rushing by at a fast pace and if I'm not careful it'll be December and I'll be nowhere near ready lol! xx
Hi Lorraine, these are beautiful. Love the black on blue. I think this die will go on my list to try and find, I have realised I have nothing with a nativity theme! Hugs, Shaz Xx
Beautiful cards Lorraine, I love the black on blue, it's a wonderful die, and the splashed whit to make the stars is a super idea, Kate x
Two beautiful Christmas cards Lorraine. Very elegant and a lovely colour combination. hugs, Marlies
Beautiful cards, Lorraine. Your design is so lovely for these beautiful nativity scenes.
I am sorry that I am still not creating. Mostly posting cards on hand except the one I made for Rudolph Days. I will return soon, I hope.
Now, back to my official RD hat...Thanks for taking part in the April Rudolph Days Challenge
