Good Morning All. I have been busy giving my craft room a reshuffle to see if it work better for me. It was a job that was intended for earlier in the year, but life got in the road as it does sometimes I'm afraid. However, I thought I would pop on this morning and see what everyone has been up to, and lo and behold I saw it was Challenge 10 over at the Christmas Card Club. Where did the last 2 weeks go. The theme for this one was chosen by the lovely Karen B and she chose Poinsettias, one of my favourite flowers. Sorry I'm a wee bit late Karen. My card was made this morning and I used mainly snippits from my stash for this one. Thank Goodness for dies, they saved my day again. After a visit to my lovely sisters at the CCC, I need to finish what I started. Going out with some friends later, so it will be a quick tidy up till tomorrow. Hope you all enjoy the Bank Holiday Week-end.
Hugs Rita xxx

I love having a good tidy round my craft room, you find stash you had forgotten about!!!!
Lovely Christmas card. xxxx
This looks beautiful! You should give bow tying tutorials...that one is spot on! I am so in agreement about how dies save the day. I had to make a First Communion cards yesterday and I just layered all sorts of dies and used generous amounts of stickles! Worked a charm just like your lovely layered card!
Super card Rita. Fab bow and hope you are enjoying your BH weekend too! Zx
Poinsettias are always popular and you've made a lovely card with yours. Good luck with the re-shuffle which is something I'm sort of doing but very gradually.
Gorgeous card Rita and love your poinsettia ....
