Tartan Angel Christmas Wishes

I have made this card using a Squiggle Stamps image, and have coloured her in with my promarkers. I have followed a sketch and used some old glittery cardstock, some kanban tartan card and some shiny red thin paper. I have punched out a couple of tartan flowers to compliment. I also added some heart brads and a pretty butterfly brad that I found in my brad box as it was the perfect colours for the card. This card I will be sending to my Aunty Joy, as I know she will love it.
I am entering this card into the Squiggles December Challenge, which is a GDT call.

N'ice Bear Bringing Home the Tree for Trimming

I think this PB bear is gorgeous and the blues really worked well on him, I was pleasantly surprised with the end colour result.
I have followed my own design for the layout, added some pretty blue gems in the corners and punched out some christmassy snowflakes in varying glittery/glistening card.
The main card is a metallic blue, with a layer of papermania henbury collection i believe, which has tiny glittery dots on it.

What's a worm do?

It wriggles along in the ground (and occasionally inside apples). I have set myself a challenge and have surpassed myself. I found the critter sketch challenge blog had 1 hour left to run of last weeks sketch. so decided to make a very quick card, this is the result and for a quick card i am very pleased.
so entered into the Critter Sketch Challenge #42
thanks for looking, sorry about spelling mistakes in a hurry to get it posted in time.

mono ho ho ho

This has to be my favourite christmas card so far (and believe me, I've made a fair few this year) I have used some kanban tartan, some HOTP paper pizzazz collections (ephemera I think), and some gorgeous silk ribbon, 3 tiny flowers and three papermania gems for a little sparkle. The sentiment was printed off of the computer, and I have edged everything lightly in black chalk.
I am entering this card into some challenges and would like to say thanks for setting these monochromatic challenges as they are so memory invoking.
Love it!

I have followed Just Magnolia's Sketch #83, and have coloured her gently in pinks, with golden wings and added stickles for effect.
