Here we are again at the Christmas Card Club. These two weeks come round so quickly. This time the theme is Festive food chosen by Lorraine.
My Cards
#1
#2
#3
All three cards are 6" square and are what I think of as my "bread and butter"cards. In other words simple, flat cards which are cheaper to post. I save my other cards for special friends and family members when I can go to town.
The first card uses an image from the Paper Shelter and then I added a holly corner from Joanna Sheen Signature die and some pearls. The other two are using images from the same Hunkydory pad as I used last time. I also used a Marianne poinsettia die in the corners. I must thank Lydia for the tip she gave about looking at Ebay for taster packs. I have checked them out and think it is a great way because although ot might be a little more expensive initially you save in the long run by not ending up with loads that you won't use. I didn't actually buy any Hunkydory, but I did buy some taster toppers and papers from Helz Cuppleditch so thanks again Lydia.
Gosh the last few days have been really wild! I do so hate wind because it can be so destructive. It has also been very cold but no rain or snow, unlike those in the far north and also Wales. I think next week is supposed to improve - if you can believe it.
Well that's all from today and I hope you are all well.
Take care.

Beautiful cards, Christine. I'd be hard pressed to choose a favourite they are all so lovely and perfectly fit with the Lorraine's choice of theme. xx
A beautiful set of cards Christine, I love the first image, very retro and just perfect for the theme. Sorry I've been missing of late, there's a post on the CCC blog by way of an explanation.
