Christmas

Good morning everyone , I do hope that your week has gone well...

It is our last Challenge of the year over at the Fussy and Fancy Challenge Blog. 

Our new theme is 

Christmas 

Perfect for this time of year.

Here is my inspiration for the challenge 

As usual I have a photo tutorial to share with you. 

I started by dare I say... cutting up one of my Stamps...

I do this quite a lot, 

I just find it makes this stamp more usable 

So I started by stamping the wreath shape...

( you should all be good at this by now lol )

Next I filled in the little gaps 

That looks better 

Next I stamped the little pine cones, followed by adding some chunky white embossing enamel , 

And then some  matting and layering 

On separate card I stamped some holly berries. Cut them out and then added them to 

the card. 

I then used a Tim Holtz pointsettia die and some decorative paper to make an embellishment.

I do love the embellishment stage...I spend ages just arranging them and playing .

I hope you like my design and that you will go over to the blog and see the fabulous designs by the rest of the dt .
