Christmas Card Club - Fairies or Angels

Good morning.  Just a very quick post from this morning. I totally forgot that this weekend was the  time for the girls in our little club to produce another card in the quest for less panic nearer to Christmas itself. Instead I had a spot of panic in February ... lol! However, I managed to quickly put something together this morning.  This time GranMargaret is our host and therefore the choice of theme is hers too.

My Card




Sorry for the bad picture but it is snowing quite hard here and the light is awful.  The flash has produced a pinkish tinge somehow.  If it brightens up later then I might try again.

This is a 6" square card using some bits out of my box.  The fairy was already mounted onto the Spellbinders die, the sentiment was again already mounted and the ivy spray was there too so I just added some glitter to the image and used Creative Expressions "Falling Snow" embossing folder for matting.

Hope you are all well and keeping warm and dry.

Take care.

Just lovely Christine, and perfect for the challenge. I feel this fortnight has happened along very quickly too.
Bucketing of rain here, we had the snow earlier in the week, but still it's keeping light for longer now, take care, Kate x
