Sweet November flakes

Good morning Friday.

The sun is shining this morning but I am wondering for how long. Been a wet and miserable week and I can't even cheer myself up by looking foreward to NEC. Unfortunately I can't make it this time but I will start to look forward to spring. I hope everyone who goes are having a wonderful time and buying beautiful craft stuff.

Onto today's card which is another christmas one - yes, not long now but this year I am ready - well, almost hehe. I am entering this into several challenges and the embellishments lends themselves to I {heart} Promarkers "Snowflakes" and A Spoonful of Sugar "Relish to embellish". I have used some gogeous vellum printed with gold medival words attached with a few brads - Cute card Thursday's challenge this week is "Gently does it!" As the colours are rather unusual for a christmas card it fits into Everybody Art Challenge "Un-traditional xmas" and the Promarker Challenge "Pearls, Lavender and Lace". Phew .... that was a small mouthful. I hope you enjoy my card as much as I liked making it and as for the sweet image ..... well, it's one of Amy Young's and I just love them all. Mine is a digi image from All that Scrap but she is also available in rubber.

Sødt vinterkort Mette. Men du har glemt at deltage i en vigtig (super) udfordring; nemlig ABC Christmas Challenge. Temaet denne gang er Winter Wonderland.
Så skynd dig!
