Never Ending Afternoon Picnic

I have always loved Never Ending cards but haven't made one for ages, when my ladies saw my original one I made a few years ago they thought it was great, this is the one we made in class using Afternoon Picnic Designer Series Paper. I just love this Designer Paper especially paired with Wisteria Wonder card stock for the base  there's lots of cutting for this card but well worth it. I just love how this card turned out don't you.
Whoops I have just realised I didn't take a photo of the back of the card come back and I will have it on this post.

A Blue Christmas

When I blogged my first Festive Flurry Card in a Box I promised to blog the one I had made in Island indigo and Silver using the Winter Frost Specialty Designer Paper, well here it is at last, I think I prefer these colours even though we don't have snow here in Auckland I still love making cards in winter colours.  I haven't added a bow to this card as I wanted the snowflakes to be the main feature. The Winter Frost Specialty Designer Paper is $26.95 and can be found on page 29 of The Holiday Catalogue.
