Christmas Card Club Challenge 21: Carol Singers

Hello My dear friends and fellow bloggers.    Its time for another Christmas
 Card Challenge and this time the theme was picked by our lovely buddy Sue P,  and she has chosen Carol Singers . 
My card is a 6 X 6  scalloped card matted with red & gold.  I used a Marianne die with a topper to have a main picture.  The die cut Carol Singers are Sizzix.   I stamped the holly and added some little berries, them made a gingham bow and stitched some tiny bells to it.   I'm pretty sure my fellow members will have come up with some excellent cards for this theme. 



Andrew goes in to have his Knee op on Friday and the op itself will take place on Saturday.  So after nearly a year of waiting finally its being done.   A big relief for us all.     Enjoy your Day.   Hugs Rita xxxxx

Rita, this is so lovely. These were the carolers I had intended to use (only mine were black), but they were too large for my card size. I like these MUCH better in the white you chose. Love the card size & all the delightful dies with this darling topper. Good luck with the knee surgery too. Think my DH might be looking at a partial replacement. We see the specialist at the end of the month, already saw one specialist, who referred him to a partner who only does knee replacements. Nothing else. So we'll see. Hope all goes well and that rehab goes smoothly too. TFS such a beautiful card which really met the theme so wonderfully well. Hugs

This is wonderful Rita - love the little snowmen and those dies are amazing - love how you have popped them either side. Just gorgeous. I do hope Andrew's op goes well, I know you have been waiting for this for ages! Take good care of yourself as well won't you.

Hugs to you both Sue Pxxx

Astrid Maclean said...
