Hi everyone..hope you are all keeping warm, took 'his lordship' out this morning and I needed to defrost my face when I got back home!!! It's absolutely freezing out there but at least we have no snow I feel so sorry for those who have. Anyway enough waffling...it was the lovely Clare's challenge today on our Christmas Card Club and it was to use kraft card....so I made this little card. I'm going to pop over to all you lovely peeps blogs now and then dish the sunday lunch out...so TFL and huggles everyone and stay warm!!!!!!! xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Lovely card Sue. Certainly the weather for Christmas cards isn't it? I couldn't go to Zumba this morning - can't get out of the drive because of the drifts! Love and hugs from Christine xx

Love your unusual design and colours Sue, the papers are lovely. We are very cold here, but no snow. Have just been out to put towels on the washing line and noticed some dark grey heavy looking clouds, Brrrrr, keep cosy, Kate x

Hi Sue
Great card...You have some wonderful elements here...Brilliant idea to use the reverse image of the poinsettia paper cutouts to show off the kraft paper. I also like the torn edge of the DP...gives it a bit of a vintage look which so suits the kraft paper.

Just got back for overnight at my Mum's...so glad to put my feet up and be home. DH has been busy while I was away de-thatching the lawn...yes...spring has finally sprung in Surrey, BC
