Christmas Card Club Challenge #5 Post Box / Mail Box

Hi Crafters,

I seemed to have lots of images in my stash for this weeks challenge so thought it best to get as many cards made a possible :)

These three cards were created using images from Hunkydory.




The second two cards were created using an image I've had on my computer for years, I love it, it's a really old fashioned looking postbox and the 'Dear Santa' letter has been 3D and slotted in to the opening.

Well that's all from me, I haven't had a chance to blog much lately so I'm sorry if I haven't visited you recently. I was hoping to redeem myself but this month is already looking so busy and it's only just the 1st !!!
There definitely aren't enough hours in my day :)
I will do my best.
I hope to see you soon,

Christmas Card Club Challenge - #3 Stars on Your Card

Hi Crafters,

February has begun and we are marching on through the year already. It is our third Christmas Card Challenge this week and Sylvie has asked us to use 'Stars on our Card' - I hope that this special star will count?
I have made two versions using the same Apple Blossom die brand called Nativity Scene.



I have made similar cards before as I find this die so versatile. The background papers are from a discontinued LOTV paper pad. I have paper pieced the star back in using glitter card.

Challenges I'd like to enter:
Fab n Funky # 466 Christmas
C.R.A.F.T. Challenge - #542 Christmas
CHNC Every Saturday - #475 ATG Christmas/Quick & Easy
Sparkles Monthly Challenge - #124 Winter Blues


Thanks for popping by, the other ladies in the group will also have some fabulous Christmas inspiration for you so why not take a look at their blogs listed here.

Sooo Cute!

Hi Crafters,

I had a naughty :o) purchase before Christmas and treated myself to this Crafters Companion stamp and die set. This is the first chance I've had to play with them and here is my sweet card.


Recipe
Gemini Peek-a-Boo-bunny Stamp and Die Set - Crafters Companion
Bunny coloured with Promarkers
Creative Expression Happy Birthday Die
Glitter Ribbon
Gingham Card
Gems

Challenges I'd like to enter:
I Love Promarkers - #402 ATG opt. Embossing
Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge Besotted with our pets
The Sisterhood of Crafters - Newly Acquired Stash
Aud Sentiments - #243 ATG + Sentiment
Krafty Chicks Challenge - #491 ATG/All Occasions
The Cutie Pie Challenge - #143  Cute, CAS


On second thoughts I should have taken a photo of the inside of the card, you can see the back view of the bunny peeking over the aperture in the card and it's just as cute as the outside but I didn't think of that until it was too late.

I hope you're having a lovely weekend.
See you soon,

Lorraine
