Christmas card club challenge....anything goes

at last I have finished my advent calendar......made using my Tonic star dies.....

I was so pleased with the way it came out I set a piccy into C&C when the Tonic shows were on and they showed my piccy.....so as seen on TV...the numbers are all cut using my Cricut....the stand was £2 from a charity shop.....I used craft card to make the stars and there is a little opening door on the back of each one so I will be filling them with lovely choccys for my dear Hubby......
Looking forward to popping round all of your blogs later today to see all your lovely creations....

A quick Anniversary card....

Rich just asked me if I had a card suitable for a wedding anniversary in my stash...no I hadn't but 2 hours later ....yes I have.
