Christmas card 4. memory box summer 2014.


Good evening crafty friends, followers and visitors.  Warm welcome to new follower Susanne, thank you joining me..

Another memory box DT Christmas card for Oyster stamps.. in-between my hubby and I cleaning the windows and washing/ironing & hanging curtains.. feel a bit shattered, have been up since 6.30am..bad night ...

6" tall  Z  fold card,  thought these Hanging Ornaments fitted good on the front and Merry Christmas background  was perfect for the inside..Quick card once the planning was out the way..
Lot of piecing with die cut colours on both these dies..think it gives  better effect.. colours Silver glitter/purple mirri/ lilac glitter on white..



 not very good colour on this card the purple is lovely and rich like cadbury purple..LOL.

This is a good card for posting as its mainly the pearls with the depth..




Pretty snow flake border either side of the merry Christmas background die.. is  Frozen Flake..hope you can see this propel!!!..
