My card today is another 12" x 6" the red base card is Hunkydory topped with torn white vellum, I have used several die cuts the circle is in white, the Tonic Snowflakes have been die cut in both red mirror card and gold vellum, I have added some natural fibres for a bird nest to which I added some white frosted berries, I used a die cut bird house then used my SU punch for the bird both I have distressed with TH Vintage Photo ink, I went to town with a die cut Poinsettia, white flower sprays, carnations and roses, frosted berries, glass berries, lots of glitter, snow and ice, red bow, holly, white pom poms, sentiment banner and gold star I think that is about it........this card is for my mum.
I would like to enter my card into the following challenges:
I do apologise for not being around but I have had a few problems the main one being my central heating I had to call the engineer out and it seems the pump has gone, I have had to make some hard decisions and have decided to wait until the New Year to have one fitted due to the cost, I have some oil radiators which should keep the house warm over Christmas.
I want to thank you all for taking time out of your busy schedules to come and visit and for leaving me a comment please forgive me for my lack of visiting.
I have my mum with me this weekend as James is going away for a few days so she is going to keep me company, she will be happy though as I have iced my cakes and she loves Christmas cake, lol. I will try to visit you all as soon as I can so please bear with me,

I'm sorry to hear about your heating, I hope you manage to keep warm - it's so warm down here we have daffodils in flower at the bottom of our garden, they must think it's spring!
Take care and enjoy the weekend with your Mum.
