Blue Christmas
Hello my friends and a very warm welcome to my new followers. I hope you might get some inspiration here on my blog. Well, I have been trying out some designs to make for my (Posting) Christmas cards this year as the royal mail have put up their prices again. Anyway, to-day's card was from Joanna Sheen CD Rom 'Christmas Creations' and I did use this CD lots of times last year as the artwork on it is fabulous. I used a lightweight linen card to run off the picture, and sprayed it with spray & sparkle aerosol. My background was hammered card that I stamped with a Sheena Douglas pine tree stamp using Versamark Smokey Grey then I distressed it with Tumbled Glass & Chipped Sapphire, I gave it a spray with perfect pearls to add some lustre. I matted and layered the image on to the card and added a sentiment to the finished card. Enjoy your Day. Hugs Rita xx

Hi Rita, I love the way you have mixed a CD picture with some stamping, such a clever idea. That shiny coloured card behind the picture gives off the most amazing colours and love your background too. Beautiful card. Crafty hugs, Anne x
What a really lovely card.
Hi Rita,
really lovely Christmas Card. Love the stamping background, and the cd image too it's so cute. We don't see a lot of snow down south, but you must get quite a bit up there in Bonnie Scotland.
Have a great crafty evening everyone.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.
