I can see clearly now ...

Last year I bought a Christmas Patchwork Pals kit from QVC, thinking it would be good for making cards to sell for charity, but it remained untouched. I took the box to Eastbourne in case I felt like doing some crafting - all I did in the end was to stick ovals into a few aperture cards.

So this is one of those cards, with an piece of acetate put between the two layers of the aperture, with sentiment 'buttons' and snowflakes stuck on the front and correspondingly on the inside. The picture of the church is glittered to give a snowy effect.

The pattern on the front of the card continues on the back.
