Yum yum Christmas pudding
Searching through my card blanks I came across some long narrow pearlescant ones and thought this LOTV stamp called Christmouse pudding and coloured using Promarkers would be used the image to use on it. I then searched through my stash of peel offs and found the vertical Christmas sentiment which just fitted and some waste peel off that I could use as edging.

Spinning tree
The papers used for the front and inside of this card were printed using Tattered Lace's Over the Mantel Piece CD ROM. The dies used were also from Tattered Lace.
To make the spinning tree I cut two pieces of white card and sandwiched them together with thread running vertically through them. I then glued the same die cut image to both sides of the tree. I cut a circular aperture large enough for the tree to turn in both the card front and the paper that was to be attached to the front lining them up. The thread running through the tree was then sandwiched between the card front and design paper. Finally I cut flexible strips of leaves to go round the edge of the aperture and once in place added pearl and violet Liquid Pearl drops.

Wreath
For this fortnight's Crafty Cardmakers challenge the theme is no patterned paper.
I used a duo wreath die cutting the green card several times and snipping it into pieces in order to create a much larger wreath. I attached it to white card which was matted and layered onto green and white card. I added pearl gems to two of the corners and various coloured dots of Liquid Pearls to the wreath. The sentiment in the centre of the wreath was cut from red mirri using a Tattered Lace die.

Skater
For this Christmas card I made a twisted easel. The background paper for the front of the card was printed using Hobbycraft's Christmas 2016 Tattered Lace Magazine CD ROM and matted onto black card. The base of the easel was pearlescent card also matted onto black card.
The lettering on the base which forms the stop for the easel is made up off several layers of pearlescent card snipped and reformed from Tattered Lace's 2016 snowglobe die cut. - 2016 seems to be in favour today!
The digi image coloured using Promarkers and fussy cut is from Scapper's Delights and is called Chibis-skater. I positioned it so that it looked as if the girl had skated the sentiment in the ice.
