This is my third design team card for CCAYR October: getting ready for Christmas. This is being sponsored by Platypus Creek Stamping and Craft, who will be giving two cling mount Christmas stamps to each of the winners - there are two challenges this time - one is to make a single card for the theme and the other is to make a set of five cards.

This is a quick set of five cards using Lili of the valley pictures on which children are getting ready for Christmas, taking trees home.

This time the lovely little girls are hanging up their stockings on Christmas Eve and Santa is handing out presents to the children, while the children in the bottom right are going out to carol sing.

For this stepper card I've used snippets of Kanban card left over from a kit from last year and some miscellaneous pictures and an Anna Griffin sentiment. The glittered white flowers are Prima.

Guest slot for Tok Bobok 4: autumn

I was delighted to be invited to be a guest designer for Tok Bobok 5: autumn/fall. Please click on the link to see what the team have created and join in with the challenge.

I stamped Penny Black 'fantasy tree' with memento rich cocoa on to a piece of autumnal paper. This stamp isn't specifically one to be used for autumn, but I added spots of yellow, orange, red and brown with copics. This was then cut with a nestie and mounted on to die cut circles. This was then mounted on to a piece of bronze pearlised card that had been embossed with an Embossalicious 'tumbling leaves' folder with my eBosser which had been wiped with some deep red and golden light metallic gilding wax - unfortunately doesn't show up too well on a photo.
