Hi Everyone
I hope you have had a good day.
Mine didn't turn out quite as expected as the accountant got in touch to say that he was ill so could he postpone our meeting until next week .. .. .. I was pleased he didn't want to share his germs!!!
So I decided to crack on with a few more Christmas cards and a bit of present wrapping. We are trying hard to get the majority of our parcels delivered over the weekend which will be brilliant!!
Another share of a quick make tonight .. ..
Sentiment: Pink Petticoat "Joyful Christmas Sentiments"
Backing Paper: Pink Petticoat "Pinstripes"
Diamond Stickles
Matt Gold Card
Spider Web Netting
Bells
Metallic Thread
I love the clean simpleness of this one .. .. and simple is what I need this late in the day!!!
As for yesterday's card!! Well I didn't like it at all when I looked at it this morning. That horrendous snowflake just had to be ripped of and replaced .. .. so my card now looks like this .. ..
much better I think .. .. .. and I have made quite a few of them for attaching to the presents I wrapped today.
I think I am winning "SLOWLY" LOL!!
Catch you again tomorrow sometime.
Love
Beautiful card so classy and elegant

ReplyDeleteI'm sending you my address in order for you to put the stunningly beautiful CAS one in the post to me.... I'll even send you a first class stamp!

Your jingle bells card is wonderful Jules. I love the way you have attached the bells to the Spider Web Netting and the CAS layout is perfect.
ReplyDeleteI did think the snowflake on your other card look fine but the one you have on there now definitely looks much better!
Hugs Sue
Hi Jules, love your gold card - the greeting font is fabulous as are the gold bells. Now, I liked your card yesterday but can see that the white snowflake is an improvement - now the card has gone from lovely to stunning :) Elizabeth xx
ReplyDeleteOh Jules gorgeous cards as always!!! i just came on to do some commenting before bed.Im so busy Jules im meeting myself coming back!!!.I went for more xmas gifts today but it was awful i was pushed and shoved about,,im so tired now!
ReplyDeleteThese are two stunning cards! The jingle bells with that fab sentiment are wonderful.
ReplyDeleteI missed yesterdays post so don't know what you hated, but i sure love this. It is very elegant and I don't even like purple.
Good for you for getting a few made ahead now...as you say it is handy to have them ready to go with the gifts.
I am doing the same as you...our presents are wrapped and I have just another hour on the tree hanging the snowflakes, and then it will be wrapping the gifts to drop off. I have the cards ready and like to do the wrapping up to somewhat match! I like wrapping so it will be fun!
I suppose it's the gold but this card looks really luxurious and expensive.It's a lovely design.
ReplyDeleteYes - I got my nail heads and have used them on quite a few Christmas cards. Much better than brads and card candy.
