From today we are concentrating on our own Christmas (which as usual will just be the 2 of us and quiet) but I first need to get the Christmas Tree up otherwise it won't feel like Christmas at all!
Snow embossing folder on the background then the 'tree' shapes ran through the corrugating machine, pearls and lace added and some white organza ribbon then matted onto coordinating card.
The stars were punched from the oddments and another pearl added.
Am off now to get covered in glitter and tinsel (makes a change from flour) - will be back later for a chill out blogland visit. Thanks for visiting today and enjoy your day!x

Good luck with the tree - just don't ask Hubby where to stick it (Hettie's Friday Funny over on her blog, the old ones are the best!.

Hi Viv,as always your cards are STUNNING.Glad your party went well,hopefully you and your husband can now recover lol.We are the same,have only been the tow of us at Christmas for a very long time,I don't mind at all hee hee.Wishing you and your husband a very Happy Christmas,A Happy,Healthy and Safe 2015.xxx
These are wonderful Viv, and a great way to use up left over bits! Sounds like you need to put your feet up now and enjoy your Christmas.I hope you have a Happy and relaxing one!
Your cards look really effective. Just off out in minute to walk round the local roads to see all the outside decorations. There is one house that goes absolutely bonkers each year with its decorations. I don't think they have any available wall. roof or garden space left to add any more but we shall see. hugs Mrs A.
Such a gorgeous set of cards Viv, I love the elegant designs and wonderful colours.

Lovely design and it's so fun to different colored versions of it! It always amazes me the effect a change of color has, these look so different!
What a great set of cards, love the colours and as they look easy peasy, they probably wasn't.
