Merry Christmas

Here is my card this week for Crafter's Companion.

I know .......... a Christmas card !!! lol!!

I was in a poinsettia mood and 

I love these ones from the BeBunni Christmas CD!! lol

I also took part in the SCS Christmas Challenge with this card.

It was a photo inspiration here 

Now I know there are no gingerbread men on my card but ...

it was the lanterns and the grid sides that inspired my card, hence the trellis 

die down the side of my card and the red for me is Poinsettias !! 

Oooh now I'm ll fired for in a Christmas mood !!!

Mmm I have a Christmas pudding left ........ maybe

that's what we will have with dinner tomorrow .......... lol!!
