Christmas gang sketch

I've been privileged to join in with the Christmas card gang - you can see who else is in the gang on the list in my sidebar. Just click on the names to be taken to their blogs where you can see their Christmas cards for the fortnightly challenges and, of course, the rest of their lovely crafting.

Anyway, this is a lovely group of girls who have formed a gang to encourage one another - and anyone else who'd like to join in - to make Christmas cards regularly throughout the year. As I started my own Craftyhazelnut's Christmas Challenge blog this year, I'm keen to join with those who also want to spread the load of making Christmas cards throughout the year.

So, for my first card with the gang, this fortnight Sally has given us a sketch to work with:

I used papers, borders and sentiment from My Craft Studio collection 'beautiful baubles' that were given with Making Cards and the pink and silver paper is fro an old QVC kit. The image was recycled from a card that was received two or three years ago. I chose the colour scheme for ABC Christmas 'G for girly', which asked for these colours:


This is also for:

Winter wonderland: Teddy Bear's Christmas
For fun: Christmas is here
Kaboodle 61: let's get girly
Craft your passion 52: anything goes
Bugaboo: anything goes
