A Partridge in a Pear Tree

Hello My Crafty Blog Friends

How did your week start? I am waiting in for my new oven to be delivered today. A couple of things that I thought would be happening aren't anymore but that gives more time to craft. I have just found out that our son-in-law was taken into hospital last night. As far as I know he is still there having test. I wonder what the rest of the day will bring.

I have been joining in with the Month of Holiday Cards Challenge at Beccy's Challenge blog.   Last week she set the challenge of using one of her free images to make a card. I did make one with the Patchwork Deer But I spotted this image when I was looking through and I had seen another challenge for a Christmas song inspired make so I thought I would have a go.


I found the perfect backing paper in my stash. I added some Washi tape at the bottom. 


The image is called Partridge in a Pear Tree and is free on Beccy's blog. I coloured with Promarker and added some sparkle with a Wink of Stella Pen. 


This one should be nice and flat for posting. I love red and gold and green together on Christmas cards. 

I would like to enter the  Month of Holiday Cards Challenge at Beccy's Challenge blog, challenge 443 at the Allsorts Challenge Blog, Week 48 at Digi Chooseday Crafting Challenge, Week 423 at the Passion for Promarkers Challenge blog and Challenge 20 at the Holly and Ivy Christmas Challenge blog. 

Happy Crafting

Hugs Jackie

    I was sorry to read about your son-in-law Jackie, I hope the doctors are able to find the problem and figure out the right treatment. Hopefully he'll be back on his feet and home again soon.
    You did a fantastic job on today's card, I love the design. The background paper is wonderful and you chose a great coordinating card stock to mat everything. The strip of washi tape looks great... I actually thought it was ribbon until I read your description. Lovely!
    Cheers,
    Beccy
