The children have grown so much in the last 7 weeks it's unbeleivable. It was lovely to see them again though.
Today my card is for the Christmas Card Club and its Challenge 4 already, and it was chosen by Hazel. 'Snowflakes or All White'. So I have chosen Snowflakes for my offering today,
The card is a 6 X 6 white card, backed with a lovely paper, sorry I can't remember whose it is either. I have added some silver lurex thread before embellishing it with a piece of white card that I put through the Big Shot in 2 different folders before distressing it with Stormy Sky and Chipped Sapphire blended together. before adding my sentiment stamp from Sheens Douglas. I then used some dies of large and small snowflakes with a few scattered diamante gems to make the card twinkle.
Hope you are All safe and enjoying your week-end. I aim to have a few days rest this week, so please don't worry if I'm not around.
Hugs Rita xxxxx

Gorgeous card Rita, looks perfect, xxx
Beautiful card Rita. Like the way you used two different embossing folders. By the way, the sentiment I used on my card is from a digi set by Pink Petticoat - 18 sentiments for the princely sum of £1!! It doesn't really need to go on a wish list at that price does it? Lol! Enjoy your rest. Hugs Christine xx
Beautiful card! Glad you enjoyed the visit of your family. Hugs, Valerie
