Not long to go now and I have another last minute card!!
I broke into my brand new stash and used the
Stitched with Whimsy dies
which will be available in January.
They don't cut the card just mark it with double stitching
and comes in 6 different sizes.
I hand cut around mine to get the nice shape.
I then stamped the flowers using Poinsettia Petals,
coloured them with real red blends and shaded
the background using Bermuda Bay ink and wink of stella.
I would like to enter this into
Staying put today unless I venture out for a walk before lunch.
My son works in our Shopping Centre and said
it was MAD yesterday with not very nice people!
No thank you!!
Stay safe and enjoy the twinkling lights
and a wee cup of what you fancy.
Morning Pinky, this is so pretty, love the new border, will have to look out for that I think and the flowers are just beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI hope your about ready for the big day, stay safe.xx
Beautiful Christmas card Pinky and love the poinsettia. Thank you for joining us at CRAFT Challenge. Hugs DT member Sylvia.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card, that border die is lovely and those poinsettias are stunning.
ReplyDeleteTier 4 here so only essential shops open- should calm down the last minute rush a bit! 12 children in Ruby's class (year 6 Primary) have tested positive for the virus this week- more still waiting for results all asymptomatic! Ruby has been poorly, high temperature and exhaustion, her result is negative ??? She's a bit better today, thank goodness!
Stay home where you're safe.

Beautiful card. I don't blame you for staying in. I feel for you poor son dealing with cranky people. You'd think they'd be at their best while other people are providing a service for them. [Bunny]

Oh this is beautiful, I love the stitched effect you have on the dies. Oh golly I really wouldn't like to work in retail just now. It was always bad enough at Christmas without the added stress of covid, Hazelx
