I have a great admiration for so many crafters and have gained much inspiration over the years and I am still learning new things. As always there are a few 'special' crafters that stand out, their creativity going just that bit farther I could make a list of them but I would be here all day.
There is one crafter and long time blogging buddy that I am in awe of, her work just takes my breath away and always makes me wish that I had just one pinch of her talent, I have taken time to create the following card based on just a little of the techniques that I have picked up while visiting CHRISSY
For my card I have used a 7" x 10" card base the image is from Hetty Clare, I have coloured it with Spectrum Noir markers, I have die cut branches, Poinsettia, trees, fences and snowflakes and the main oval die for the image, I have added some punched stars and embossed the sentiment with Sea Foam embossing powder, something I have not done for many years. I then put everything together hoping that it shows just a little of what I have learnt from my mate Chrissy.

Excellent!!! You've made a wonderful multi-layered country Christmas card! The stars on the fence are a great holiday decoration touch. We owned a house in a small town of about 150 people back in 2005-2011 that I had added metal stars by each exterior door and three on the front porch roof's street facing panel. The exterior lights were styled like lanterns. I really liked how that changed the look of the house. Seeing your fence brought back that memory. Thanks for sharing your lovely card at FQCCCB! --Becca (Merry Christmas 2023!!)
