Santa Wreaths

Good evening! Time for another Christmas card. Only two weeks to go, can you imagine? I guess this means that I will be doing my Christmas shopping the last minute this year as well. Oh well, there is always next year to improve in, right? heh

The card today is made with an image from one of Lily of the Valley pre-coloured pads. The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and the punched border and branches are made with Martha Stewart puncher! As usual I never remember where the paper is from… Sorry!

Spring Christmas

Let’s face it. Spring is on hiatus, so a Christmas card feels just as appropriate as a spring card and we’re nearly in April already! I am loving my stay in London. We spent last night at the Savoy Theatre for the ‘Let It Be’ musical and it was very good indeed! Although I admit I loved my little shopping spree in the M&Ms world afterwards as well, heh.

Anyway, card! This one is made with blank white card, purple card and pion papers. The image is from Inkido and the ribbon is from a local shop, as are the purple pearls I believe. As always, the flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and the branches are made with a Martha Stewart puncher. I cannot recall where the snow crystal is from unfortunately.

Traditional Santa

One week to go and the days are getting busier by the minute. I’ve had more actual work this week as well, so the birthday cards I want to make before tidying all my crafting supplies away for the year are on hold for another couple of days. I hope I get them done in time! Let’s look at today’s card.

Oh, santa!

The work Christmas do is already successfully been done and today I have Christmas lunch with the department at work. Just another week of work now before a nice few days off! Anybody else noticing that once again time has sped up and you’re running out of time to purchase Christmas presents? Heh, I work best under pressure anyway, so I guess I’ll spend the 23rd buying the last few. Here we celebrate on the 24th! Oh well, this post is supposed to include a card, isn’t it? Heh.
