I've used this weeks sketch over at Mojo Monday to make another christmas card to add to my growing (not quickly enought though) christmas card box.
I stamped the Santa Collage image onto both white CS and acetate. I coloured the image on the white CS and then layed the acetate over the top, attaching with blue eyelets with my cropodile. I also added glitter glue on top of the acetate to the snowflakes and some of his beard. In retrospect maybe I should have put it under the acetate, oh well! Matted onto silver mirri card. Background paper is from dovecraft winter wonderland pack. I embossed some white CS with the snowflakes folder and matted again onto silver mirri card. I stamped the see D's sentiment onto the CS before I embossed it but used the debossed side so the sentiment was more prominent / readable. The snowflake felt embellishment is one of the larger one's out of the snowflake embellishement pack I got from The Range for 99p!Well I'm off the fat fighters (weight watchers) tonight and I am hoping I have managed to lose 1.5 lb's this week, because if so I will have lost 2 stone so far! I've only 12 lbs left to lose to get to my goal weight (hopefully by christmas!). So please keep your fingers crossed for me!
Hugs, Vicky x

Wow Vicky, this is fabulous. What a great stamp, love the colours you have used.
I used promarkers to colour in Rugby Hamish. I was into Funkykits today and Karen is now back from Hobbycrafts in Glasgow and she said today that all the DT stamps have now been sent - so hopefully they should be with you tomorrow or the day after I would think.

Wow stunning card ,fabulous use of the sketch ,Dawnxxx
Ooh, I have this image now. Hope I can make it look as pretty as this!
Hope WW went well. I've just re-started 'fat club' after 6 years off it. On the upper scale of a size 12 at the mo but have to put a stop to it here as it's a slippery slope from here on! Problem is, I've forgotten all of the things I used to eat to trick my brain into thinking it was eating lovely things. Any top tips?! ~x~
I'm really not a fan of christmas cards Vicki, but i do like this one. Has a vintage feel to it. Lovely.
