Father Christmas is here!

Day 1 of my holiday and I had this card done by 10.30!!  A good start I think :-)


There seem tp be loads of Christmas challenges on at the moment, so although I don't feel particularly Christmasey (it's waaay to early!) I thought I might as well make a start

The image is one of my favourites as it's really detailed but is just a stamp, no colouring required, perfect for when you've got a whole host of cards to make!


I've added a few gems, some blue and white organza ribbon and some snowflake die cuts by K&Co.  The paper is from a 6x6 pack I bought a couple of years ago

I'd like to enter this card for
Cupcake Craft Challenge 101 - Pastel Christmas
Little Red Wagon Challenge 39 - Christmas in July

Thanks for looking
Sue xx
