Crafty Cardmakers and More Challenge 148

Hi and welcome to another Crafty Cardmakers and More challenge.  For this weeks challenge Sally would like to see sparkle on your creations.  Here is my card.


You know that feeling when it is suddenly September and all the Christmas stuff starts appearing in the shops and you realise you haven't made one Christmas card yet?  Yep that is me right about now! I like to keep my Christmas cards quite clean and simple as usually I leave it to the last minute and I have a stack to make.  My sparkle is in that gorgeous gold cord (which quite frankly is much more gorgeous in real life and so very sparkly but didn't photograph well) and the itty bitty rhinestones.  I did have sheets of sparkly glitter paper out but nothing appealed to me when I was putting this together.

Here is what I have used:
Card/Paper: Kaisercraft "Yuletide"
Embellishments: Kaisercraft Collectibles "Yuletide", Kikki K Gold Cord, Studio Calico Cork Stars, Wooden bird (I think Prima?) and Rhinestones from my stash.

That is it super quick and easy but another Christmas card for the stack!

Have a great week and don't forget to go and check out all the other amazing creations here.

A beautiful and classy Christmas card Bec. I love that you have decorated each of the squares of patterned paper with different embellishments and your gorgeous old twine and gems add some wonderful sparkle. Sally.x.

Seems a lot of us have Christmas on our mind - and what a perfect challenge to do so. Love your card Bec - the layout and all the lovely little embellishments you added. One down ...

It's amazing how quickly Christmas has caught up with us isn't it.
Cool layout and a great way to use up bits of christmassy stash.

Really beautiful, haven't seen this design in a while and it should be a staple layout! So very pretty how you combined every little group - gorgeous!
