I hope you've all had a good weekend. I haven't got used to not going to work on a Monday morning yet!! It feels very strange so I'm going into town instead! A little bit of retail therapy!!
I've got another Christmas card to share today, using a Lili of the Valley image called 'Father Christmas'. It was lovely and sunny here when I took the photo!
I've used my new Spellbinders poinsettia die (Harrogate purchase!!) and added some small pearls to the centre. I love this die, you might be seeing quite a lot of it before December!! I've finished off with some ribbon and a few pearls.

Love your gorgeous traditional Christmas card Lorraine. Love the image and your poinsettia looks lush, might have to invest as the one I have doesn't look have as nice as this one. Enjoy your day in town.

Super card Lorraine. Gorgous image and fabulous Poinsettia. Enjoy your day shopping xx
I'm glad to see Santa has his gloves on when working with holly.
A few years ago I had a go at making my own holly wreath and couldn't work with my gloves on so I took them off. Oh boy, probably the most stupid thing I've done in years....my poor hands were in a right mess by the time I'd finished the wreath!!
You've done a fantastic job on your card.
