Clean and Simple

The theme today at Charisma Cards is CLEAN AND SIMPLE.. .. and guess who is sponsoring this week.. yes .... Stamp Fairy! So here I am joining in the fun with the Charisma girls with a Christmas card, my second one for this week and my fourth one for this year .. yay I'm so pleased :)

For my card today I used the sweet Barry from the Countdown to Christmas 1 collection and also some stars and snowflakes background, which I topped up with glitter, from one of the Friday freebies at Stamp Fairy.

I coloured Barry with my promarkers, a pretty paper from scraps, ribbon, sentiment and gems to finish it off. A very quick card today indeed.. I should have called it Quick And Simple not just Clean And Simple ha ha

These are my challenge for my card
Stamp and Create January - ANYTHING GOES
Crafty Cardmakers 59 - NO FLORAL EMBELLISHMENTS
Lexi's Creations 56 - ANYTHING GOES

Hugs

    I admire anyone who can make a plan to craft for Christmas well in advance and stick to it. I promise myself every year I will do that and come mid December I am panicking cos I didn't even start yet.

    This is just lovely, such a cute image and great design.

    Thank you for joining us at Lexi's Creations and at Crafty Cardmakers.
