So, this year, I'm back to plan "B" - make Christmas ones all year round - and cheat by using art pads!
So, for the very first time I give you a card using an art pad image.
To help me on my way, I followed the Sweet Stetch Wednesday stetch, then kept adding bits till I thought the card looked complete!
So, the image, sentiment tag and papers are from LOTV, the Bakers Twine from The Ribbon Girls, and the flower off a cracker!
Challenges;
ABC Christmas - B for Baubles
SSW2 - Stkech 2-81
CHCC - Use a sentiment
Holly Jolly - Use designer papers
Crimbo Crackers -Anything Goes

This is fab and I may need to have a proper look at the LOTV stand at the NEC this year lol!
