Good morning to all my lovely crafty friends and a special welcome today to my new follower Sandra. Thank you Sandra for joining my blog I hope you find time to visit often and enjoy my posts, I hope everyone is having a great week and enjoyed the recent good weather .
Well I have been doing a lot of crafting this week but most of it is for later in the month or September as I'm getting ahead of things before my holidays.
Some of you will remember last Christmas I made a few cards using a Craftwork Cards Christmas Candi pad I got at the GNPE well a few weeks ago we made some more at the craft group I go to so I thought I'd share them with you.

Hello Carole
ReplyDeleteTwo stunning Christmas cards, the papers are gorgeous.
I love the little gems and bakers twine on your first card, and
what a brilliant idea to use the acorn and leaves from
a cracker.
Just beautiful.

Two wonderful cards Carole! I especially love the topiary card as I do like topiary in any form. I'm glad to know I'm not the only one who takes all the decorations off the crackers after they been pulled.
