November Rudolph day challenge

its the last challenge of the year at scrappymo's Rudolph day challenge so here is my card......

this is my first attempt at creating a background using brusho's....I have shied away from stuff like this but I had a lovely day playing creating backgrounds and learning how little of the product is needed.....I think I was a bit heavy handed on this one but I decided to use it as I loved the colours...
Have a look over at scrappymo's there are prizes to be won.

Christmas card club challenge 24...The Holly and the Ivy

a quick CAS card .....

I have used a craftwork cards card which is printed with the holly and the ivy music...apt I thought and a very old clarity stamp which I have embossed with WOW midnight sparkle ...its so lovely and blingy...doesn't show up very well on the photo....

a large christmas card......

this card grew like toppsy....starting out with the Sue Wilson boarder dies....

my inspiration came from a card John Lockwood demonstrated on Hochanda when inspiration was needed!.....where does that crafty mojo go......
All the dies are Sue Wilson and the embossing folder too ,with gold dimensional paste grouted into the embossing......I watched Sue's you tube video.....
Hope you have your mojo and are enjoying crafting today,we had wild and windy night last night at one point I thought the roof tiles were coming off....a nice bright sunny morning ...ironing curtains for me!
