Allsorts traditional christmas

 Today’s card was put together for the Allsorts Challenge #834, 

asking for traditional Christmas colours, red, gold and green….

I got out my bits n bobs tin from I-don’t-want- to-remember how long ago!

While searching for names of sets, I noticed some are on selling sites.

(See below for details)

I have some blank cards left from SU Beary Christmas, so I used this red one,

It provided the background for the pines and baubles.

So I’m rushing over to the Allsorts Challenge #834, 

as it closes soon, and as always there’s a fabulous prize.

Retired sets used: Stampin' Up, Beary Christmas, Beautiful Boughs, Decorated Pines,

 Clarity sentiment sheet “christmas”, Gummiapan “merry”.

Thanks for taking the time to visit, and I really appreciate your comments

Take care and see you soon

Polar Bears

 We had a nice quiet Christmas, hope you had a good one?

My sisters plans were a bit scuppered!

One bro in law fell and dislocated his shoulder…….

it was touch and go whether they could go to the hotel they’d booked,

but happily they did, and are still having a nice time.

The other bro in law had pneumonia……Hospital is not what they’d planned on Christmas Day,

but again happily he was home that night, and is recovering well.

I thought I’d share my last Christmas cards pics for this year…..

I got a pack of this paper, and had fun fussy cutting and creating various designs…

Some of these designs were cased from Emma Goddard, do visit her blog Coastal Crafter.

I used some flocked vellum

Made one for a family of three..

Then dry embossed snowflake backgrounds for these…

I hope you and yours enjoyed the holidays

Look forward to seeing you tomorrow!……I’ll be visiting the Snippets Playground…
