Strawberries and cream at Christmas

This is another card for the BF 25th club for June and also for 'strawberries and cream' for challenge 96 on Cupcake. 'Strawberries and cream' is also this week's challenge on Winter wonderland.

I know it's summer now - and the weather seems to be agreeing atm, which is brilliant - and 'strawberries and cream' conjures up summer days, particularly with Wimbledon on atm. However, I decided to use the colours on a Christmas card (well, I needed to get up to date with the rest of mine for the 25th club). This was then matted on to some sparkly red card.

I stamped the Magenta Christmas tree with versamark and heat embossed with metallic red on to pearlised cream card. The background paper is BG eskimo kisses.

This is also for:

My time to craft: 'Yuletide in June'
Caardvarks June challenge: 'stamps and wet and/or dry embossing'
Created by hand: 'songs we sing' (O Christmas tree)/embossing'
Crafty Ann 17: 'embossing'
Speedy the cat 8: 'emboss'

    very nice. We finally have some sunny weather here, so hesitating to do anything that would interfere with that BIG GRIN

    Well, strawberries and cream work so well with this Christmas card - the only trouble is it's made me feel hungry and I could eat some ......... strawberries and cream!!! Thanks for taking part in Crafty Ann's Challenge this fortnight and we hope to see you back again very soon. Best wishes, Kym xxx
