After winning a previous challenge I was delighted to be invited to Guest Design for
I thought it would spur me on to get started with this year's cards, so thank you ladies.
The Challenges are always
Anything Goes with an outdoors farm/country Christmas theme.
I used a lovely holly frame stencil from Poppy Stamps together with Elements inks
The stamps are from various companies- the trees and lake are Stampscapes, the tiny deer and stars are Card-io, and a stamped sentiment.
There are some lovely inspiration cards from the talented DT to be enjoyed over at FQCCCB, so please do hop over and check them out.
Thanks for visiting and have a lovely weekend
