Festive!

Hello friends

It's about to happen...!
My first Christmas card and yes I'm so sorry - I know it's July!
But I don't think I'm alone, I've been chatting to lots of crafty people
and they've already made a start on Christmas so I don't feel quite so bad.

My card features Label 46 Decorative Accent from the 
Renaissance Collection.

The approximate die measurements:

Frame: 5.80 x 5.80 in
Insert: 3.10 x 3.10 in
Accent: 1.90 x 1.90 in

I chose to trim the die cut for a different look.
I also used some gold mirror card to to shadow the middle die cut.


A Layered Poinsettia and a couple of leaves for the middle decoration.


Labels 46 Decorative Accent is available to purchase from your 
Spellbinders retailer, this Renaissance Jubilee collection is really quite stunning!

Take care friends, I'll be back with more!

    Morning Christine, I really wish that I could start my Christmas cards early, but there are always other things (housework and gardenning !!) that gets in the way haha. A lovely card with the beautiful poinsettia.
    Lots of love from Patricia xx

    Hi Christine...It's beautiful!! It's perfect for July as it's not over the top Christmas lol. This new collection of Spellbinders is just fantastic isn't it. I just wish I had the funds to get all of them but I do have a few of them...and as soon as my house is back together again (I've just decorated the front room and laid my first ever carpet) I may actually be able to play with them :).
