Glamourous Ladies Christmas Card

 Hello My Crafty Blog Friends and Visitors

I hope you had a good weekend. We actually went to a socially distanced concert on Saturday. It was so lovely to be at an event. Everything was in place to keep you safe. I can't believe we are so close to Christmas. 

This is the card that I made for my good friend. We decided to meet for a walk to swap cards so I was able to make her card a bit bigger. 


I keep cards with images of this type of lady. My friend likes them a lot. 


So this image was cut from an old card. 


The Poinsettias and Ivy were cut with dies by John Next Door. I added pearls to the centres to make them a bit more opulent. At the back is white glitter card. 


I know my friend liked this card. It was lovely seeing her for a walk. Unfortunately we did get caught in the rain. Tonight is the night that  two planets are in conjunction  which will make what some people are calling the Bethlehem star. I do hope the skies will be clear enough to see it. 

I would like to enter the following challenges: 

Have a good week. 

Happy Crafting

Hugs Jackie

Love the Art Deco images, glad you friend liked the card but then who wouldn’t. It’s gorgeous. I bought some nice wrapping paper from Clinton’s a long time ago and cut all the Art Deco images out. They were useful for cards. Take care and stay safe.x

I loved how you repurposed the image into a very elegant card for your friend. I’ve just been out to look for the star, but u fortunately there was too much cloud. ☹️
