Christmas Card Club Challenge 20: Icicles

Hello Everyone. Imagine its 2 weeks since our last challenge , the weeks are starting to fly past now so thank goodness most of my Christmas cards are nearly finished.  Lorraine has chosen the theme for this challenge and she would like to see Icicles. I really enjoyed making my card for this one. I used the latest La Blanche kit for my card and it was such a joy to do , the papers are always exceptionally beautiful, so I guess you may be seeing more. The base card is 8 x 8 matted with non-shed glitter card in silver then a burgundy layer before adding my final layer. so many elements to choose from but I love vintage look at Christmas so I chose little people for most of my add ons. My icicles I cut by hand and added to the top of my card.  'Tis lovely sitting here in my craft room today with the sun shining in the window.  Hugs Rita xxxxx

A lovely vintage image on your card Rita. I thought I was going to have to cut my icicles by hand too because I misplaced my icicle die - found it still sitting on my desk. You can never see something when it's right under your eyes can you? Hugs Christine xx

Icicles cut by hand, Rita, now why didn't I think of that? They are perfect! Your card is beautiful - I like the vintage look too ... possibly because I am vintage :) Hugs, xx
