A Christmas Easel

Hello all and I hope that your week has started well.  Busy at work today - this is the start of week 4 in my new job and I'm really enjoying it.  It's a good team of people that I'm working with, and there is a constant stream of staff and boys coming through (I'm in the office at a boys grammar school!) so no two days are the same - which is great!  But it's a big school (about 1100 boys, mostly day boys like my son, but nearly 200 are boarders as well) so it's going to take me some time to get to know all the staff, etc.  And my poor brain cells are pretty overloaded as it is, so I'm hoping it won't take me too long!

Anyway, I just wanted to share a Christmas card with you made with Nikky Hall's fabulous new cd 'Home for Christmas'

This is a fantastic cd with some wonderful images, papers and embellishments.  I've used a topper from the cd and just added a little glossy accents to the holly berries, some distress ink and some stitching

I decided to make an easel card.  I used a different paper design from the cd to make a rosette and added a button & silver bells from stash.  The sentiment is mounted on kraft card with a Spellbinders 'floral ovals' die. 

I hope you like it!  And don't forget to check out the cd on the Polkadoodles website HERE

Back soon ,
