There are more than a few challenges this week looking for Christmas themed projects so I am playing along with
Papertake Weekly ... Christmas Crackers
Flourishes Timeless Tuesday ... Thank You and/or Christmas
Allsorts ... Christmas Carol or Song Title ... Once in Royal David´s City
Gingersnap Creations ... include a Frame.
For my card today I decided to go back to basics, so no fancy papers - only pearlescent card. I created my frame using my circular nestabilities, cased this from my fellow DT Harriet, thank you sweetie, and edged this with those long forgotten peel offs. Both images have been coloured with copics ...central image is from See D´s Traditional Christmas ... Christmas Angels - Praying from Lili of the Valley and the flower was another of last week´s finds. Very plain and simple and looks much better IRL.Please be sure to visit the Flutter By Team's blogs to see their wonderful fluttering creations! Links are on my sidebar.
