Beccy's Place 'Month of Holiday Cards Challenge' Day 7 - F

      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 now day 14!

 However I will catch up!!

This card follows the prompt F is for - Day 7

F is for freebie

On the Conjurer of Dreams Facebook Group there is a monthly Progressive Challenge and the first image is a freebie.

 Each week a new image is sent to you if you use the first one.

I made this card for that first November image:


I printed the image three times to place one on the blue card blank, a second to cut out the frame and a third to cut out the extra blue Foliage.
I placed a snowman (also Conjurer of Dreams) on the scene and  a layer of acetate to look like a window behind the frame.
Finally I added the hearts...


I will add this to the challenge



Happy Crafting!

Find the blog post here

This is one of my favourite folds and I have used it lots. Find the instructions here 

This is my version for today:


The top part is made from a piece of card 3 by 8 scored at 5.75 inches.
The base is 4 by 12 scored at 4.5, 9, 10.5 inches. I used another blue card.
I added matting layers of silver and a paper from Stamperia White Christmas by Cristina Radovan.


I then added a die cut using a Tattered Lace die
 with a little embellishment from 49&Market Evergreen - I received a whole packet of this as a prize.

I will add this to the challenge

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 am not sure I like the gold banner at the end...
I made this card at a U3A card making class. I was interested to see the idea of using the embellishments from tags bought in a 'cheap shop'.
