Christmas Card

I have been so busy lately and I apologise for not updating my blog.  I will endeavour to get more motivated and update this more often.

I have lost a little of my mojo lately and have found it a bit hard to get back into.  I have been creating but not a lot and only when time permits really but lately, there have been so many other things to do.

Anyway, here is a Christmas card I made recently.  I have dragged out my markers, which I haven't used for a long time.  The stamp is from the Beautiful Season set ($33.95 clear mount). 

I love to use markers especially to get the elements in different colours, so old olive for the leaves, real red for the berries and elegant eggplant for the bird.  I've added some of the new 1/2" Elegant Eggplant Scallop Dot Ribbon and some old olive scallop border.  I made a few of these as well because I liked them so much.   I've been making a few of these cards smaller than the normal C6 size. You can cut your card stock into 3 on the long edge at just under 10cm and you will get 3 cards out of the one piece of A4 card stock. 

1st December 2011 the Summer Mini Catalogue will be available.  There are some great products in this catty so stay tuned.

I hope you like my card and thanks for looking.
