Well guess who forgot to put the clocks forward before she went to bed last night..........yes that would be me!! Luckily I'd bought hubby a radio alarm which automatically adjusts itself and realisation eventually dawned on me after pondering the reason my clock had gone an hour slow!! Have to say no one else in the house remembered.
Well another fortnight has passed and it's Christmas Card Club time again, it was Hazel's turn to choose the theme and she's requested swirls and pearls on our cards. I had mentally pictured a card using a LOTV image and lots of dies but when looking at some of the other girls cards earlier I remembered some must have Kanban card I had stowed away unused and unloved and decided I'd make a card using old stash (if I didn't buy any Christmas goods for the next five years I don't think I'd run out!!).
The Flowersoft decoupage was one of four languishing in the same box as the card and as it's about 3 years old I thought it was time it made it onto a card! (I used these images for all my special cards in 2009 and had 4 left for hubby and the kids cards when I ran out of time and steam and decided to recycle and give them their 2008 cards again! The cards were well travelled as we'd spent Christmas 08 in Dubai but no one noticed that only the envelope was new!)
The matting for the image was all from the bit box and everything except the base card, ribbon and pearls was ancient stock.
The inside has been decorated to match using the metallic version of the Kanban card (probably should have used it on the front and the matt inside but hindsight and all that lol).
