Good morning i have just noticed it has been a whole week since I posted. It has been a little hard to craft with a dripping nose yes the dreaded cold has hit me with a cough and sore throat. Hey Ho but think I am on the mend and hopefully fully fit for Christmas Day.
As it is Friday it must be time for a new challenge at Crafty Catz
Now this weeks host is Janette but sadly she is a little under the weather too and has been given orders to rest up. So i have stepped into her shoes. So the optional twist is Janette's and i do hope that you will come and play with us. This will be our last for this year but we will be back next year with some new members and some new sponsors so hopefully some exciting times ahead.
Ok back to this weeks challenge
Our fab sponsor that kindly gave the team some images to play with is
I picked this image Crafting Scarlette and although this could be used for any time of year I decided to turn it into a Christmas card to send to a Crafty Friend. I hope you like!
I have coloured the image with promarkers
Sentiment is computer generated
Dp is from old papers and think as either dovecraft or docrafts
Mirri card for some sparkle
The bauble is a peel off that I matted onto some card and then fussy cut
Layout is from the current Stella challenge
gems from stash

Beautiful card, I love the image and the beautiful Christmas colours
Great idea to use her for a Christmas card Sue, lovely design and colour choice and beautiful colouring as always.
Sorry you've got the dreaded cold...don't you just hate it when your nose drips!!! Thought I'd got rid of mine but cough has returned with a vengeance...at least the sneezing and dripping has stopped!
Hope you're better for Christmas, have a fantastic time
