A Lovely hAnglar Christmas

It's Christmas time over at Lovely hAnglar or Sweet Magnolia!  We're starting a new challenge today and it's an easy one - we'd like to see your Christmas creations!




I used this gorgeous hAnglar & StAnglar stamp and painted her with Distress Markers.  The papers are by Simple Stories and I love their homespun look.  I matched the DP with Kraft card; the image mat has been stamped with Walnut Stain using a Magnolia holly swirl stamp and the border was cut with a Doohickey die.  I just added some roses and pearls from Wild Orchid Crafts to complete the card as I wanted to keep the layout quite simple.

Why not pop over to LhoSM  to check out what my lovely teamies have made?  We'd love you to join in this fortnight if you can!  Instead of a sponsor prize this fortnight we're offering one lucky winner, chosen by the design team, the chance to guest design for us for two challenges.

I can't believe it's only a couple of weeks until Christmas! I really need to make a card for Mum and Dad, so I think a bit of blog-hopping inspiration might be in order after I've finished my marking.

Hugs

Tracey xx

Lovely. I made a card the other day and had some flowers in a similar position to yours, couldn't work out what was wrong with them.... didn't add leaves. That's what was missing! Hey ho ;)
