NOEL



Really enjoyed making today's card, although my family think I am mad for still making Xmas cards!

Managed to make this card for two different challenges too, Fabs Xmas Card Challenge which asked for a sentiment and gold mirri, and A Spoonful of Sugar which required lots of layering.

Card is a 6x6 square made from cardstock. All papers used are from a HOTP kit bought many years ago from QVC, and although not much left, I still manage to use up most of the scraps. The sentiment is a PSX rubber stamp, stamped with VersaMark and embossed in gold. First time I have used this stamp, but am really pleased with the results. Gold ink was then used to distress the papers. Gem added just for that finishing touch.

Apologies for photo quality, the weather is so dark and dull here I just can't seem to get a nice picture.

Thanks for looking
