    Thanks Denise.
    Yes the tree is pp. it's Trimcraft, Silent Night.
    I embossed it first and skimmed over with an ink pad, to make it a bit darker.
    Then added everything on top.
    I've always wanted to do messy, but never got it right.
    But I'm pleased with it.

    I also think it is lovely Ellie, love the colour of the tree and that wreath around it, very pretty.

    You are doing brilliantly Ellie, you've made quite a few cards now and I still haven't finished one. I am making a birthday card at present (not red) and can't finish the baby card yet because as far as we know she still hasn't had it! I have got as far as cutting a card ready for gluing but I think I've made it a funny size and probably won't have an envelope for it now. Hopefully, a day in tomorrow so I may get some crafting done.

    I know its not a card but it is the right red did you notice your owl Ellie
    I have made a card in red but bravely stamped straight onto the card but it doesnt look right 2 donkeys at the top so I have found some ribbon to cover that and have a rejig to make something better of it !
    Hope the baby arrives soon so you can finish your card Susie

    Yes I did Denise, he looks cute. If you need anymore let me know.
    Hope you get your card sorted.
    Susie, I did that last week, and had to make an envelope. But now I’m
    wondering if it will go through the letter box!!!

    Well, you’ve all been busy. November has just run away with me, so no red cards from me I’m afraid. I did make two birthday cards at the beginning of the month, I could post them on the other card thread, there’s no red in the
    I’ll try and join in again when we get back from holiday x

    Oh Ellie, if it's not one problem for us crafters it's another. I'll go through my stash of envelopes but it will probably be quicker just to make one.

    I've written on the photo thread about the problems with the baby card. Just going to make the insert now and then I'll have another go at the red card.

    I've left a message for your gorgeous LO Denise. There can never be too many photo's of donkeys or cats or anything animal related really.

    Have a good holiday Alison. Where are you off to, somewhere warmer than here I'd bet!

    We’re off to Colorado, days seem to be warmer there at the moment but temps drop at night, and hopefully we’ll get some snow while we’re there.
    I may get some crafting done while I’m there, depends what delights I find in all the lovely craft stores

    Susie, I’ve been to the shop in Newark today, and I’m sorry but they haven’t
    got any picot ribbon. I asked the girl and she said “ what’s that”!
    When I’d finished explaining what a picot edge looked like, she said,
    “ No, we don’t sell that “! They have lots of trimmings and lace, but no
    picot edge ribbon.

    Just found this and thanks Ellie for trying for me. I got some pretty ribbon from Sandra so we did a little swap, die cuts for her well, it would be from me, wouldn't it.

    That sounds like a good combination Alison, warm days, chilly nights and perhaps snow. It was trying (not very hard) to snow here last week, I couldn't believe my eyes at first. If I were you, I'd spend lots of time in the craft shops Alison, leave all your clothes behind and bring back crafty stash.

    Oh yes, I've made one red card although the background looks more orangey to me, but it is red, it's just the poor light. I'll post it but I've just realised it isn't finished yet. I printed a few of these toppers and glittered one but I've stuck the one without glitter on the card but you'll get the idea -back to the drawing board.

    Lovely card Susie. I like the pine and berry background.
    Is it printed or die cuts? Lovely, makes mine look plain
    But here it is anyway.
