52 Christmas Card Crackers 2013

They are lovely Nat
Here is my sticker card - I punched an aperture in the card and used two clear stickers to form a window in which I enclosed a punched snowflake. I have to admit the aperture is slightly 'off' in position, but it's not too bad - I must be more careful next time

What a great idea Wendy - I've not got any clear stickers, but am sure could do something similar with vellum or acetate.

Here is my colour prompt card - I used the vintage-y slightly green-y blue in two shades.

Beautiful cards, everyone! Wendy - that Santa Claus black white and silver card is gorgeous! Love the gingerbread men, Virginia!

I love those sentiments, Karen and Nat - I think words on cards at Christmas is so important.

I am switching from a Christmas card or a normal card each week - I am not managing to do both prompts! I have done well with the sticker sneeze week though!

Will try to upload shortly.

Well here is my Christmas card for this week.

Totally didn't turn out as planned, but hey it's one extra card for the pile:

Virginia - love your gingerbread family card, very cute.

Wendy - I love the stamp of santa flying over the rooftops - so much detail in it. Love your sticker card - very clean and simple, but so elegant too. And your colour prompt card is lovely too - has a very frosty feel to it.

Nat - loving all of your christmas cards - you have done a great catch up - i am still failing big time

But I have finally got round to photographing the card I made for week 16 - negative die cut. I made 3 all very similar but for some reason only photographed one -

Thank you Here is my week 28 card - I ditched the colour prompt completely, but it does have stripes..... The papers are from a magazine.

I use up the freebie mag papers too! I think the cards come out pretty well, despite the glossy finish. Funny to talk about Christmas in this heat!

I like to use the free papers from Making Cards mag, which aren't glossy but are printed on 'proper' paper

I don't get card making magazines, so I wouldn't have a clue - all my freebie paper was from the Scrapbook Magazine, donkey's years ago.

Here is my Week 27 card, Celebrate the Season - all about using up more snowy supplies for me so I don't cart them to Australia!
