Christmas Card Club 10 February 2013 ... ... ...

This fortnight the theme at Christmas Card Club was picked by the lovely Dawn http://cherrytreestudio.blogspot.com/ and the theme is ‘It’s Only Words’. 
We are a group of ladies who are trying to make sure we are prepared for Christmas 2013.  If you want to join us then leave a comment with our lovely Clare here http://mypurfectworldccc.blogspot.com/.
I’m in the mood to make mini cards right now lol!  I think it’s because I found a big pile of 95mm square pearlescent envelopes – so I will be making mini cards on and off until most, if not all, of those envelopes are used!
I forgot to finish my cards until last night.  Thankfully I had all the bits ready and they just needed putting together!


   
 
 


  

A final look
That’s it for me today – I have a lot of photographs to edit which is secret squirrel stuff again lol!  I’ve also got to write and schedule several posts for secret squirrel stuff too!
Hope you’re all having a good weekend and have some crafty time too!

You have a fab start on your finished Christmas card stash! Great idea to make them match the pretty pearlescent envelopes.
I think they are a trend right now as i receiver 3 of the smaller cards this Christmas!
Love the embossing folder that you used. The sanding you did on the raised portion looks great
