At last ...


... a bit of crafting time - I've spent the morning putting together lots of cards, using some recycled materials and cannibalising some of my own cards that I made some time ago.

I originally had a multi-fold Christmas card that I've cut up and altered to make three different cards:




I'm entering these for the following challenges:

  38. You've certainly been busy. I got a bit worried when you said that you had cannibalised some previous cards;) But I absolutely love that blue christmas design you've done here. Thanks for playing at ABC Christmas Challenge and good luck. Hope to see you back the 31st for a new challenge. Bettina xx
