Elzybells snowgirl

Hi everyone, thank you for all the absolutely wonderful comments as always and sorry if I haven't managed to get round to everyone's blogs the last couple of days, things are a bit manic!

Today's card is for an SCS limited supplies challenge which had to include eyelets, the colour blue, only one piece of patterned paper and one ribbon. I failed on the ribbon I realised after upload as I have two. For the background/paper, I stamped Elzybells large snowflake with versamark and heat embossed with Kaleidescope ep, I repeated this over the first snowflakes and used snowflake ep onto the blue card blank. I stamped the cute Elzybells girl and robin with versamark and versafine blue lagoon together and heat embossed with the Kaleiescope. I wish it would show up better in the photograph, it's lovely and Christmassy, shimmery and sparkly! I liked the image as it was and haven't coloured it. I put the eyelet (crushed to bits!!!) on the left of the image panel and the sentiment then tied blue and white organza ribbon through the eyelet hole. TFL.

Back soon,
Chris

Hi Chris
This is such a pretty card. I love all the sparkle! Thanks for your nice comment on my blog. I'm so sorry to hear you have not been having a very good week and about you job. I hope you find something else soon, I'm sure this must be a stressful time for you.
Big hugs Lynsey :)
