Oh Xmas Tree Tree Tree

Hi all, wasn't sure what to do this evening, I fancied playing with some paper but had no inspiration.  I went around a few blogs and found this fab challenge blog called The Play Date Cafe and the challenge was the awesome picture below.  I had a new paper pad from Teresa Collins from last year unused and it just went beautifully with these colours.  Believe it or not this is my first!!!! christmas card, just 10 million to go (ok so that maybe a bit of an exaggeration lol).



And my card
I can't believe it, it's wonky, how come I always
notice after the card is finished lol.
The sewing is meant to be wonky, honest!!!

Right I'm off as OH has just turned his computer off to go to bed so I shall follow him lol.  Thank you for visiting I really do appreciate it.  See  you soon with more christmas cards hopefully, I shall be making, writing and sending them at this rate lol.  Hugs Kerry :-) xxxxx
