Peace and Joy

Good morning.  Hope everybody is well.  I thought spring came the other day - how wrong I was!   One absolutely glorious day but very cold and very windy since.

Anyway more Christmas cards because it's time for the Christmas Card Club again. Granmargaret is our host and wants to see two or more patterned papers.

Card # 1


Recipe
5" x 7 " cream card base
papers - 
mini poinsettias - Wild Orchid Crafts

Card # 2

Recipe
6" square white base card
papers - Papermania "Home For Christmas"
Topper - LOTV Art Pad
word die - Brittania Dies

I don't know why I told youwhat colour the base cards were because I covered them both up totally with the backing papers ... lol! Well that's another two chalked up.  I'm quite pleased with how the numbers are mounting.  

A quick post today.  Enjoy your weekend.

Hi Christine,
2 very wonderful cards and they are both fab and wonderfully created as usual.
Although I love poinsettias my fave is the 2nd one as I adore the LOTV images and the papers used a gorgeous, and combined they make this card perfect.
We have had 10 days of wonderful spring weather luckily, but today keeps going over dull one min and sunshine the next, but at least it's warmsih.
Love and big hugs from my house to yours.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.

Think I missed these 2 fab red cards at CCC and got your pretty blue & white one instead. Glad I got back to enjoy seeing these. Love the red & white, and I really like the way you've got the stripe pattern on the red & tan one. Great designs, and 2 more for your December stash. Hope it's warmed up a bit for you. TFS & Hugs
