Hello again. Jude with you on this wet and blustery Monday. According to the weather forecast we should be thankful for rain as we apparently have snow coming soon!! I love to see the snow but the country grinds to a halt with just a couple of inches. We really don't have a handle on how to deal with snow in the UK. I know some of you have much worse snow than us and still manage to get around on the roads or public transport; we just don't have enough experience I suppose to cope with the excessive fall we've had in the last couple of years.
Still hearing about snowfall means that I'm starting to feel a bit Christmassy. I've even bought a few presents! You never know I might actually be ready by the time it arrives, lol.
My cards are practically all going to be seasonal as I have quite a few to make. Today's offering comes from a Forever Friends paper and embellishment pack.
These are little chipboard toppers layered on 3 papers from the pack using foam pads for dimension. I took a 6x6 scalloped blank and added a checked paper layer. I rounded the corners to keep the look of the blank. The stars is a 3x5.5 piece added at an angle and the button paper is the same size but I rounded the corners again.
The sentiment is from another set but still Forever Friends. I thought it balanced the card out nicely.
I wanted some kind of sparkle but wasn't happy with any of the bits I added. I eventually found this elastic string with stars and beads, which I think matches quite nicely.
What do you think?
Thanks for joining us again. TTFN Jude xx
