First Crimbly card!!!

Happy Tuesday to you I hope your week has got off to a good start.  Mine started with lunch out with a good friend and a good old catch up so thats what I call a great start.  Anyway I wanted to show you my first Christmas card of 2012 and of course I used a Magnolia.  I've gone with a traditional colour theme for this one and I made another criss cross card.  I do love making Christmas cards I can add  bling and sparkle to my hearts content!!!


She has been coloured completely with copics this time and lots of stickles added to the trims and bobble.  I thought I would add the presentation box in my photo this time which has been decorated to match the card.


Papers are Papermania and I must admit they were lovely quality but I just wish they would include a few more pages of each design. 



My poinsettia is a Marianne Design die and I've dipped the petals in Twinklets.  I've used a cherry blossom from WOC for the centre and I quite like how its turned out.  I used my Martha Stewart doily punch to edge the card and the fab lamp post is a Marianne die also and I can see this getting a lot of use just love it.

Challenges I would like to enter




Off now to have a bash at finishing another Christmas card. 

Take care, happy crafting.

Gorgeous Ann-Marie...though shocking that you are organised enough to even think about Christmas so early!! You'll be laughing when December arrives and I'll be crying cos I've not started mine!
Beautiful colours and embellishments.
