"Please Mr Postman"

Hi crafters everywhere hope you are all OK - wet and windy in Devon today. So having spent more money!!!! buying the new Forever Friends CDRom I had to have a play. I made a pink Christmas card for the challenge at Bah! Humbug! and, guess what I missed it but never mind because their next challenge is Snowflakes - phew!!!

I used the sketch by Jane at Just Cute Bears which is below............................


The only things I used that were not on the Cd are the chip board glittery circles at the top of the card



and the glitter on the snow oh and the distress ink around the distressed edges - everywhere!
I have only managed another couple of challenges with this card - Christmas Card Challenge where they would like a lot of pink and Everybody Art Challenge where they asked for a song title - mine is "Please Mr Postman".

I look forward to hearing your thoughts.

Hugs

Hi Ali

Two days on from your post and we still have wind and rain, typical UK bank holiday I guess.

I love this image and sweet card and am so impressed you are working on Christmas cards.
