Xmas wishes in blue

Yesterday I made 90 Christmas cards - a marathon session. They were quite simple cards, put together quite quickly, five of each design, ready to sell for Tearfund - people don't always want to pay much for Christmas cards and so I like to make some that I can sell quite cheaply. And today I've managed to put in all the inserts and bagged and labelled them. I still need to make a lot more.

So I made five of this card - the blue stickers were among some I picked up as bargains on my last visit to Poundland. The base card is pearlised (an opportunity to use up some of the boxes of pearl card that haven't been touched for a couple of years) and the strip of text paper is from scraps left from a magazine freebie.

Btw it's the scan that's wonky, not the card!
