Beccy's Place 'Month of Holiday Cards Challenge' Day 2 - B

   This is a make for

 Beccy's Place: A Month Of Holiday Cards Challenge

 - which is now in its 14th year!

Again I am late to the party -  it is already day 13 and L!!

I thought of the challenge in October but then it slipped my mind - however I will catch up!!

This card follows the prompt B is for - Day 2

B is for banners using a banner or bookmark die.


I started with a white card blank matted with a Christmas paper. On this I placed a frame.
I added lots of banners cut from scraps of Christmas papers and embellishments (upcycled tags).


I will add this to the challenge

Happy Crafting!

WOYWW #910

           

Follow the link to find out more about What's on Your Work Desk Wednesday and maybe join in...

 This is my post for WOYWW#910

Here is my desk today:




My craft room still looks as though a bomb has hit it... I have sorted out a few things but there's still a long way to go! Maybe I will show a little more next week...

On the front you can see my Trovember so far- a collage made by adding one item all the way through November. I am adding a blog post about this every 7 days. I have worked out that each prompt arrives at 6am my time the next day...


I finished another workshop from the virtual retreat - this time by Annette Gearside.
The attached rectangle is a 'journaling booklet'.


 Remember the workshop I shared last week by Amanda Branston?


I used the same technique to decorate the charity box I was painting last week.



And also to make some Christmas cards:


Melbourne is famous for its coffee... we always have fun deciding on the images on their surfaces:



Can you see anything in these?


Sending hugs to all connected to WOYWW. Hopefully I will get around you all this week!
