Enjoy the Moments that make the Season Bright

Hello again friends and visitors.

I've been busy reorganising my craft space this week. My Husband says I have too many supplies. I had to correct him, of course, it's lack of space that is the problem as there is no such thing as 'too many supplies'! (He's now worried that I might be eyeing up his rather large 'man' shed lol.)
That job is done now and everything is much more accessible. There's no excuse now for not cracking on with more Christmas loveliness.

So here is my weekend card for you.









The supplies used here are

* Pearlescent linen cardstock white
* Pearlescent cardstock pink
* Christmas wreath stamp - magazine freebie
* Papermania pink and Stampendous crystal embossing powders mixed
* John Next Door Confetti Frame embossing folder
* Presscut Square nesting dies
* Spellbinders Blooming Collection (cut twice, one pink and one white. Layered and offset)
* Sue Wilson/Creative Expressions Pine Bough
* Papermania Tinsel Snowflake embossing powder
* Sue Wilson/Creative Expressions Classic Poinsettia (Leaves only)
* Woodware Holly punch
* 14 Craft Bar Poinsettia dies
* Rosy Dot flower making dies type 2
* Spellbinders Classic Circles Large
* Justrite Merry and Bright stamp set
* Distress inks
* Oil pastels
* Stamens, glitter and pearls from my stash
* Pink Berries - made using air dry clay, florists wire, paint and glitter

A rather large supply list today, but there is a lot going on with this card.

Not your traditional Christmas colours, I'm experimenting a little, but I really rather like it.

I really really wanted pink Berries on this card but had no success finding any so had to resort to making my own. They were very simple to make and I made a few extra, ready to colour for another project. The added advantage to this is you can also choose the size too!

Well, that's my card for today. Thank you for your visit today. Be sure to stop by again midweek for my second Amazing Paper Grace card. (I'm still thrilled to bits!)
