My second card is using the most delightful doggy image from the Penny Johnson clear stamp range, I got this one from The Glitter Pot before the sale (it has just been reduced). The paper is Papermania, I used black card stock to mount both image and paper, I added some flowers, bow, pink gems and stamped sentiment 

I am off now to do some commenting so I hope to see you soon, hugs to all.

Christmas Card Club 2 Cards

Hi all today I have two Christmas cards to show you that I have made for our own little Christmas Card Club.  I did not make one for the last challenge so I have made up for it this time.

My first card is based on the theme from the last challenge which was to use an Aperture.  

I tried something a little different this time, I used an A6 card base which I embossed using the Cuttlebug snow fall folder, I used my Xcut star die for the aperture, I used a smaller star die for the mirror card then placed the star and sentiment on the inside, I added two little stars but apart from that I have kept it very clean and simple.

My next card is this weeks theme that was chosen by me which was to use a sentiment as the focal point, I used an A6 card base also embossed with the Snow fall folder, I also used my rectangle Spellbinder dies, I have wanted to use this sentiment for a long time, it is a wooden stamp which I inked with Momento ink, I added a gold die cut snowflake and a red star. once again I have gone for the clean and simple style. 

I think my mojo has taken an early Summer holiday as I have been struggling a bit with my crafting.

I would like to enter this card into the challenge at

Christmas Card Challenges - Sentiment Only

I would like to enter both cards into the challenge at

ABC Christmas Challenge - K is for Keep it simple

I will be around later so see you then, hugs to all.
