Welcome Christmas

The third class at the Stampin' Up Christmas Craft Day Extravaganza on Saturday was taught by Natalie.

This delightful set of cards used gold, red and white card together with the traditional 'Welcome Christmas' stamp set, and a clever twist on card folding and shapes.

This crisp sparkly snow scene was created by making a refection and then embossing. Adding ribbon, brad and punched flowers complete this special card.

Second was this view through the window frame created with a square punch.

My tree looks a little wonky here, but not IRL!!

and a creative fold for the card itself.
