Your Freebie Challenge cards

Good Sunday Morning Ladies, 

I hope that you are all well and enjoying your weekend,  we made the mistake of going shopping yesterday,  OMG, people were shopping like it was the last weekend before Christmas,  it was crazy busy.  I think we will be keeping these weekend shops to a minimum!

We only went in yesterday because we had bought Sophie an Art Desk that we needed to collect.

Lets look at your amazing cards....

Brenda

Wow Brenda, two stunning Christmas cards, I just love the look of Ivy on cards, it works so well in any colour too, your first looks so luxurious with the Red and Gold, there is so much detail in that lovely flower that you have used too.

Your second card uses the same main feature but with a colour change and the addition of that really crisp embossed border it looks completely different.

 Brenda's Description:

''The freebie Ivy die and flower came with Die-Cutting essentials No 55 and the EF on the second card came with Cardmaking & Papercraft.''

Thank you so much Brenda for two fantastic challenge cards, I would love to see the cards that you made for Tierney and William too, that was quite a card making session you had!!
Enjoy your Sunday my lovely XXX

I lmow I say it all the time but you amaze me every time you use magazine papers to make cards, as you really do get such a fantastic look with them, i usually bin them, apart from the old 'Making cards' magazine .
