Christmas Card Club Challenge #18 - Christmas Foliage/Trees

Hi Crafters,

This weeks theme was chosen by Zoe who wanted to see

CHRISTMAS FOLIAGE / TREES



The first card was created using a magazine freebie set from last year, teamed with a Marieke Frosty Corner die cut, a Marianne Designs Frond die cut and lots of glitter.
The second card is another Craft Creations Decoupage image with Lea'bilities Corner and Holly Dies used for accents. I glazed the holly leaves and added red gems for the berries.

Please pop over to the other ladies blogs in our group ( links in tab at the top of my blog) to see their wonderful festive creations.

Challenges I'd like to enter:
CHNC Every Saturday - #410 ATG Christmas
Winter Wonderland - Christmas Joy


Thanks for joining me today.

SUper pair of cards Lorraine. I'm pleased you liked the challenge and love your two variations. The first is very festive and the second is cosy with the suggestion of a night by the fire. Zoe x

Wonderful look on each of the cards. Really like the shining doily and that lovely paper on #1, (and the way you've done the verse in the center). #2 has such a rich look with the traditional plaid frame and the warm glow of the window scene. Like the way you've accented the corners too! TFS & Hugs
