Merry Christmas at Lexi's Creations....

Hi Susan here...

How are you all? Busy getting ready for Christmas, have you made all your Christmas cards yet?
If not why don't you join with us in the new challenge over at Lexi's Creations.
It's a great one for this time of year...

'Christmas'

Open for anything you want to make as long as it has a Christmas theme going through it.
There is lots of inspiration from my design team, it always amazes me that the same image can be used by a few people and their creations are so totally different. Come along and take a look and why not make a card and join in with us.

Now for my card....



Now you all know me by now about how I love making Christmas cards....this one I just wanted to use a traditional colour and make in monochromatic.
I was quite pleased with the effect.
The ribbon is from my local market.
The backing paper in red with white spots in from my stash, had it for ages, this is just a small piece.
The gorgeous red ribbed card and the main deep red cardstock is from Paper Mill Direct, it is well worth a look at this store, their cardstock is amazing and well worth buying. The ribbed card comes in 12x12 size pieces of card and you get 10 sheets per pack.
The large snowflakes are a die, I have used plain white card and then added Stickles all over the surface.


The cute little image is called Sammie Snowman, available from the Fairy Dust Crafts Store, designed by Lexi Lee.
The tickets are from Fairy Dust Crafts, I blanked out the centre and replaced with my own sentiments.
Stickles has been added to the edge of the topper and around the edges of the tickets.

Thank you for taking the time to look and please try and join in the challenge with us.
Love and hugs
