Creative Craft Challenge. White on White Christmas card

Evening everyone.   Today we have a new challenge over at Creative Craft and I have to admit I struggled with our new theme. 

For this challenge we want to see your "White on White" projects.

I have to apologise for the photo, whatever direction or light I tried didn't seem to make any difference.

For my card not a stamp or copic in sight.  I think is the first time I have attempted an embossed card  (this was actually my third attempt at doing a card for this challenge the first two were utter disasters, well perhaps not that bad but I wasn't happy with them anyway.......)





This challenge will be running for three weeks instead of the usual fortnight because of a little thing called Christmas which gives everyone plenty of time to get creative.

Crafty Calendar Challenge - Cold and Frosty Christmas Card

Hello to all.  It's the first Saturday in December so we have a new challenge over at Crafty Calendar.  Hope everyone's Christmas preparations are well under away.  Luckily I break up from work for Christmas this coming Friday so I should have plenty of time to get all my jobs done.

Our theme for this month is another winter theme so we want to see
"Cold & Frosty" projects.

For my card I have used one of my old Magnolia images.  I felt it has a cold wintery feel to it.
