Second Christmas card of 2013

Hi there! How's your weekend? I hope you are taking it easy. It's a yucky foggy day here today and I don't feel like doing much. If I could I'd probably just stay in bed the whole day and watch some TV, do some reading ...

Anyways ... Yesterday I did some crafting and I made a Christmas card. One of my New Year's resolutions was to make at least one Christmas card a month and so far I'm being a good girl (but then again it's only February ;)). Here's the card I made ...


I love this Christmas tree stamp. Isn't it pretty? I embossed the image with Queen's gold embossing powder by Ranger. The background paper with golden stars is from Folia. I also used some white cardstock over which I stamped with different stamps from Kaisercraft, G studio and Stampabilities. In the corners I used some of the gold confetti and some pearls from my stash. The crystals are cut from a gold crystal mesh. I also used white satin and tan satin ribbons from Crafty ribbons. This tan satin ribbon is one of my favourite ribbons ever. I know it doesn't look special, but I just love its colour. For me, this one is a must have.

I would like to enter my card to the following challenges:
Mojo Monday: Sketch
Craft us crazy: Use your favourites (my favourites are stamp and tan satin ribbon)
Crafty Catz: Bingo (pearls, dies/punches - I used border punch, ribbon)
Winter Wonderland: It's the most wonderful time of the year
CRAFT: Christmas in February
Inky impressions: Ribbon or twine

Have a great Sunday!
