I'm dreaming of....

Good evening...!

Well, what could I possibly be dreaming of then?  The would be telling...but loads more time to craft would be a start!

I did n't dare finish the title refrain which is of course from that tip top Christmas Classic!  Far too many days to go for that malarkey!  (296 days to be precise)!

Anyway, on we go.  

I promised myself I would make at least one festive card every month.  (I really love Christmas).  That didn't quite happen in February so I decided to get ahead of the project in March!

Todays card is made with a gorgeous Tilda Christmas Stamp - Winter Tilda coloured with Copics.  I used a little bit of Frantage Chunky White and Aged White Embossing Enamel around the edge of the die cut.  I layered and mounted the image using Kraft Card and papers from Joy Crafts Romance range cut out in the shape of a Dutch Doobadoo Stencil - Four Petals and then distressed around the edge.  

I decorated the card with a selection of white flowers from The Ribbon Girl along with adhesive pearls, ribbon, twine and other embellishments from my trinket box.  Finally I let myself loose with texture paste and a little bit of Angelina Fibre.

And here we are - Winter Tilda...
