A country Christmas

Well, the cold is easing off and I'm crafting again! I've got lots of DT makes to catch up on but first of all a "real time" card from me, a Christmas card made using an image with decoupage frame from the "Once upon a Christmas Time" section of the CD "The Best of La Pashe 2012"  and a Cotswold Stone effect backing paper from the same CD.


I have added extra interest and texture to the decoupage by going over the Christmas Roses with clear Stickles and the mistletoe berries with Liquid Pearls.

I am sharing this with

    I love how you've framed the image Jane and the wall background matches the stonework in the image perfectly. Plenty of snow in this image too. Thank you for joining us at CD Sunday Wynn DT

    A stunning traditional wintry Christmas scene Jane, the Christmas roses and mistletoe shimmer against the stone background which is a perfect match to the colour of the stones in the bridge. Thank you for entering the challenge at CD Sunday this fortnight Meg x
