Xmas Cards

Sometimes CK provides me with inspiration from the most unexpected source. Last night I received my December CK

I was sitting covering chipboard from which I was going to create my 2006 xmas tree decoration xmas cards. I had the chipboard, a Basic Grey Blitzen Matchbook Kit and not much else.

On page 32 of CK there was an advert for SEI doodley-doo holiday papers, with perfect little xmas presents and on page 163 a layout with a stylisted xmas tree that really caught my eye. Who needs the real thing. Good old kiwi inginuity kicked in and before I knew it, voila, my card was done.

Do you know they really do say that in France? That really suprised me. I thought it was something we just said in other parts of the world, but they really do say "voila"

Just stopping by to say THANK YOU for an awesome class @ scrapcamp Faye. Absolutely loving distressing my pps now & I've even done some handstitching on other layouts now - but I'm dying for my SIL to give me back her sewing machine ;o)
