Away in a manger
Magical merry Christmas
A quick card made this week using an upcycled topper from a card received - very sparkly (sadly, doesn't show here) and with decouraged pieces, which I matted on to the purple paper with the stars and Merry Christmas.

Birthday puzzles
This was my card for my neighbour friend's 80th birthday yesterday, printing out a Lexulous game as the background and adding the lovely Penny Black hedge-word stamp that had been inked with Versafine onyx black and heat embossed with clear detail powder, with parts of the stamped image coloured with spectrum noir pens and then cut round. The letter tiles came from The Works. The recipient enjoys playing Lexulous, so I thought this might be appropriate.

Happy 80th birthday
This 8 x 8 card was commissioned to be given to one of my neighbour friends where I live - it was her birthday yesterday. I used various Paper Boutique papers, flowers and gems. This picture looks quite dull ... the card was actually brigher.

Peace
This A5 card was made with Kanban supplies, including the lovely card blank, which isn't 'Christmassy', but I thought it looks OK with the square letters and sentiment. The gold foiling is much better irl.

This is the last set of five A5 cards made with materials from Wild winter and Very berry kits from Create and Craft (I'll be back some time with other cards from the kits as I still have lots of toppers and card left). Once again, toppers with various washi tapes using some of the A4 cards to make card blanks. I love how the robin has got into the picture again.
