A CHRISTMAS CARD

Good morning friends and visitors.
I hope this morning finds you bright eyed and bushy tailed.
May I say a big welcome to my new follower, and thank you 
for choosing my blog.
THANK YOU also  for all your wonderful comments.
I really do appreciate everyone that is made, by you very
talented crafty people.

Well after visiting lots of blogs and seeing the lovely array of
Christmas cards that are about, I started getting in a bit of a panic
as I haven't made many so far.
So here is one I have just made, so that's another one off the
list. lol.
I hope you like it.

Click on the photo to enlarge the picture.
 Now the inside.


This card is an 8x8 size.
Matted with dark red card and some Christmas papers.
The image was a freebie off the internet, and coloured in with
Promarkers.
I added some Flower Soft Polar white for the snow.
A bit of lace a ribbon and one of my stick pins I made.
The die cut round the image is the center of the Spellbinders
Ornate cross.

Thank you again for your visit.
I hope you all have a very wonderful Tuesday.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY. 

I would like to enter this in the following challenges.
