LiM 96

happy Saturday fellow bloggers
it is freezing and a warning of snow on the way brrrrr!! Still crafting time is here and this week the theme at LiM is red and green colour. These are so Christmas that it lets me kill 2 birds with 1 stone so to speak as I am behind with my Christmas cards.

This is a fairly quick and easy card and I have used
  • White Bazill card
  • Sizzix holly embossing folder
  • red and green promarkers
  • green textured material
  • anita's glitter glue
I embossed the topper with the sizzix folder and then coloured some of the berries and leaves with the promarkers. The textured ribbon is really a thin piece of the stuff that stops things sliding on a shiny surface as no other ribbon matched the promarker green! The topper was then layered on to the base card, also bazill, and a smidgen of glitter glue added to the leaves for a festive touch.
