Hello. I’m a little late posting for the new challenge at The Holly and Ivy Christmas Challenge. We have started a new challenge and – as usual – the theme is ‘anything goes Christmas’.
Here is my card:

During the holiday season I took time to sort out some patterned papers and ephemera I have, and decided to try and use them more. Here is my first attempt at that.
I took a 5×7 inch card base, cut down two patching patterned papers. The papers were 6×6 inches, so to keep the sentiment and poinsettia from one piece of paper, I added a strip of another piece to one side. Along the join, I added a strip of gold.
There are three ephemera pieces on here – the poinsettia to the top left, the little heart, and some extra little leaves to the bottom left.

I hope you can come and join us – I look forward to seeing you in our gallery.
I shall be entering the following challenges:
Crafty Catz Challenge – anything goes – option CAS
Allsorts Challenge – anything goes – option something new
Lil Patch Of Crafty Friends – anything goes
Crafty Hazelnuts Patterned Paper Challenge – anything goes with patterned paper




Beautiful – love that bold sentiment.
Thanks for joining us at the Lil Patch of Crafty Friends Challenge.
