Good morning bloggers!
I know, I don't usually post on a Saturday but
I won a challenge over at Two Sisters Challenge Blog
& was invited to GD with them!
I love playing in their challenges so,of course I jumped at the chance
although I probably shouldn't have as we are still in the midst of
DIY & redecoration! lol However, there is light at the end of the tunnel &
all the floorboards in the lounge are actually on the floor now!
Next up is the hallway!
The theme for the Two Sisters Challenge #116
is Pastel Christmas
Here's my card!
It's a little A6 card. I'm trying to keep my Christmas cards as flat
as I can this year so I can mail them with a normal stamp.
The pink ribbon is from my stash & the papers are remnants of
two digital downloads by Elaine Hayhoe over at
They have been printed off since at least last year
in my Christmas Stash!
The image is the lovely Finch On Pine by IKEsART
I coloured it up using my Promarkers & Flexmarkers
in pastel type shades.
I decorated the inside of the card with scraps
of the DP's. I also added some Papermania Mosaic Gems
just to finish the card off!
