A Last Minute Christmas Card

Good morning everyone. Yippee I'm on vacation leave now :) .. for two weeks.. so I thought I would start my leave by sharing one of the quickest last-minute Christmas cards I did!


The background embossed card is recycled from an old shop-bought card. This card was one of the largest ones and so I just used the bottom part of it, which was embossed with the stars. The cute chipboard image was a freebie in a magazine and then I just added a peel off sentiment and a bow to finish it off! I really loved how it turned out.

Here are some challenges I am entering:
LadyBug Crafts Ink - KEEP IT CLEAN AND SIMPLE
Bearly-Mine Challenge 117 - ANYTHING GOES
Papertake Weekly - LAST CHRISTMAS CARD OF THE YEAR
Penny's Challenge 158 - FAVE COLOR (pink)
Crafty Creations 253- ANYTHING GOES
AUD Sentiments 96 - CHRISTMAS
Southern Girls - CHRISTMAS
Stampin' for the Weekend - ANYTHING GOES
Totally Gorjuss 215 - QUICK CHRISTMAS
Crafty Hazelnuts Christmas 156 - LAST MINUTE CARDS
Hobby Cutz Challenge - ANYTHING GOES

I'm off now to the post office and to do some other errands! Have to clean up then to start welcoming visitors for Christmas and whatever else there is to do, but I hope to find some blogging time too :)

Thank you for looking for now
