Stripey for CD Sundays

At last I have time to craft again! It's been a very busy few weeks, but hopefully things will be a bit quieter for a while. I hope so - I need to finish making all my Christmas cards.

This week at CD Sundays, the challenge is Stripey. Now I have lots of stripey designs and papers on various CDs, but I really wanted to make a Christmas card and nothing seemed to go with any of my Christmassy bits.  Then I opened the Winter edition of Crafter's Inspiration from Crafter's Companion, and found the CD in it to be positively OOZING with stripey papers and co-ordinating toppers. The ones I've used here are from the "Traditional Christmas" section of the CD.

Oh, and apologies for the rubbish photo. I'd no idea it was so bad until I put it into this post. I really must ask Santa for a new camera - or some lessons in how to use my current one properly!

That backing paper is gorgeous Jane, as well as the rest of the card. Might be worth getting the mag just for the CD. Thanks for joining us at CD Sunday this week.

I like this very much, quite a traditional card but I like the snowflakes which give it a modern look too.

Great card Jane - love the snowflake border to the bp - I know what you mean about photos of our cards. I think I need instructions on better use of mine. x
