Hi and welcome to all my very talented friends, and visitors.
What a miserable start to the weekend here in my part of Kent.
Raining and so dull at the moment.
Starting to feel much better, and the coughing is going away thank goodness.
I tell you I spend a lot of my time in the house, but I think I was getting stir crazy at not being able to go out because of that cough.
Did manage to go to my Granddaughter Birthday meal at a restaurant thank goodness, as I thought I wouldn't be able to go, and she would have been so disappointed, as her and her brother always invite both lots of Grand Parents to their Birthday meals.
Well back to this post, and I have yet another Christmas card I made before Christmas, and haven't been able to show as yet.
This is a 8"x8" size card, and as many of you may know one of my fave sizes.
I matted my card with some Christmas paper with poinsettias on.
Then I again used my Crafters Companion embossing folder on the white layer.
Before I embossed the front I cut out a circle aperture, and after embossing it I cut out the Tattered Lace Holly frame from my last Christmas card, and glued it inside around the aperture.
Finished it of with some beads, ribbon bow, and some small poinsettias I made from a Robert Addams die I won on the Snippets playground a few years ago.
Thank you so much for your visit, and precious time.
I really appreciate the visit, and comments.
Lots of crafty love. JENNY.
I would like to enter this into the following challenges.

It's a stunning card Jenny. I'm pleased you were able to go to your Granddaughters birthday meal and glad you're beginning to feel better now. Barbxx
The weather is exactly the same here in Oxfordshire. In fact it has now started to snow but I don't think it will come to anything. This is gorgeous Jenny. I really love that embossing folder and the poinsettia paper. I do hope you are on the mend at last. A persistent cough can be so wearing! Take care. Love and hugs Christine xx
Jenny this is so very nice. You used the most beautiful embossingfolder and diecuts!!

Your card is gorgeous, fabulous embossing and die cuts, the poinsettia paper in the aperture is perfect.

What a super card Jenny, so many beautiful embellishments and that bow is just gorgeous and gives the card a touch of luxury. I really do like the time you take to decorate the inside of your cards in such a beautiful way to compliment the front x
So glad that you are feeling better and made the Birthday meal.
Super card and a really lovely EF and love the way the holly is peeking out of the circle, fabulous bow and lovely poinsettias. Super card.

Hi jenny. Thought I'd find you and say hi. Not sure you remember me as I've been away for over 4 years from my blog. Had a hip replacement , moved and have 2 beautiful grandchildren and my youngest son moved out. Not bad for 4 years lol. I hope you are well? Your card is just stunning. I've just started to get back into crafting again but my card making needs a boost as I sold all my dies years ago lol. So glad you're still on here, thought you'd all be gone. Nice to be back. Xx
Beautiful card Jenny.xxHave a lovely weekend.♥
