MOVING ALONG WITH THE TIMES DT.............ANYTHING CHRISTMAS


Hi, and welcome to all my very talented, and craft loving friends.

Well I'm nearly about 24 hours late posting my DT post as I couldn't get to my computer till tonight as my craft room was full of kitchen appliances.
It's time for another challenge over at
It is the B Teams turn again, and the lovely Caz is our host for this challenge, and she would like to see 
Anything Christmas on your entries.
The challenge runs from Thursday the 6th of December to Wednesday the 19th of December, and closes at 6PM.
Please pop along to the challenge to see my wonderful team mates creations.
So here is a card I made weeks ago especially for this challenge as I knew things would be hectic now.



This is a 7"x6" tent style card I made.
I used an embossing folder given to me by a friend with this lovely image of the Robin, and Holly on.
I used white Hunkydory plain card to emboss this on, and then I sprayed it with Crafters Companion Pearl Diamond Sparkle Spray to give it the pearlised sheen.
Then I added some waxes which I have had for many a year in various colours to the different areas, and then finally adding some red pearls for the berries, and a little black stone to the Robins eye.
The greeting sentiment was a buy from The Works.

Thank you so much for your visit, and precious time.
I really appreciate every visit , and wonderful comment.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

    Hi Jenny, I'm so glad you managed to get your card posted eventually. I don't envy you all the upset with your new kitchen going in (especially knowing there is more to come!!!)but it will be worth it in the end. It was lovey talking to you yesterday. We should do it more often!! Big hugs Christine xx

    Such a beautiful card, Jenny. I love the glittery Merry Christmas greeting and the sweet Robin. The red berries are so pretty. I can't believer they made you move all that right during the holidays! I hope your hubby is doing better.
