Nuthatch Christmas card

Hello My Crafty Blog Friends and Visitors

How was your weekend? I hope you did something nice. We really enjoyed the Dad's Army Radio Show at our local theatre it was very funny. The two guys did a brilliant job doing all the characters and you could really tell who they were playing.

When I get images to used for Design Team Projects I often print more than one image in case something goes wrong. Usually everything is fine. I was going through my box of odds and ends and I came across two of these images I used them  to make this card and its partner.


I embossed glitter card to make the background. I love using white glitter paper is it so useful for Christmas cards. The mats and layers were cut with the Double Pierced Circles from Creative Expressions. 


This is the Nuthatch pre-coloured image from Fred She Said Designs and is available HERE. The card I made for the Design Team was a bit more complex. I liked the image so much I just couldn't let it go to waste. I made two of these cards. I am still well behind with my Christmas card making. 


This is John Next Door's Happy Christmas die. I have been using it a lot this year. 


That's another two cards for my stash. Still lots more to make. 

I would like to enter the following challenges:

Happy Crafting
