Back to more traditional colours today.....same image as yesterday.......but looks so different with these colours.......following the sketch at Friday Sketchers.
Very simple design........all Dovecraft papers......with a poinsetta added......the sentiment is from a lovely LOTV xmas set.
Fits with a few challenges....Charizma Cards and Incy Wincy both want 'anything'.......Winter Wonderland wants 'holly,red and green'........and Totally Gorjuss and Sew Many want 'xmas'.
I know I'm behind with my 'Learn Something New Everyday'......so a final catch up tomorrow as the month long class draws to a close.

I love your Christmas Cards, I'm really impressed with your planning ahead, great stuff.
And it's smashing Jacky - lovely image and papers. Sorry to hear about the multiple layer thing going on in your house - don't worry it'll soon be October and more acceptable to put the heating on!

Hi Jacky...
How lovely to see all your new purchases...and even more interesting is how they will look after you have altered them!!I last went to Ally Pally a few years ago now. Work and kids always get in the way of a good craft shopping day!
Anyway...I really am trying to be good so I can spend in May when we go to Florida...
Well done on the Xmas cards, they are really beautiful...I will have one to show tomorrow and I have the shopping girl stamp...It's a good mag that gives you a free stamp!
Its gorgeous and you would hardly realise its the same stamp as before. I am afraid I have turned my heating on, really warm during the day but freezing at night!!

All of your cards are gorgeous but this is my favourite so far!!

thanks for playing along with us this week at Winter Wonderland and hope to see you again on Friday for the next challenge

This image looks so different colored in bright colors, and although I liked yesterday's version, I really prefer this more traditional one.

The poinsettia adds just the right touch. Beautiful card.

Love this card! You are so talented, you have a very artsy talent and an eye for design.
Yes, it really looks like a completely different card - it is amazing what colour can do! I am so impressed with your organisational skills - you are set for Christmas .... I've been thinking about having to be organised on the present front this year.
A really wonderfull card Jacky! Looks really great in lovely colours!

Love the idea of seeing the same image in different colours - it really got me thinking about the different looks you can achieve :)
I think this card is my favourite. I'm afraid I love the traditional red, green and gold when it comes to Christmas :) x
You're so right that it looks very different - more modern and less Victorian.

Beautiful card as always,and lovely to see a different colourway- you must have a good collection by now :-)
This is gorgeous Jacky, love those papers, they're so beautiful xxx
I so admire your forward planning, and your resilience about the central heating! We've been putting our fire on every day for the last ten days! Your card is lovely - that poinsetta just sets it off perfectly.
Gorgeous card, you are very organised! Our heating has been on a couple of weeks now, you are braver than me lol!
Thank you so much for joining us over on Incy Wincy this week. Good luck!

Fabulous card Jacky. Very pretty. :) Thanks for joining us this week at Totally Gorjuss. Gez.xx
So interesting to compare and contrast this card with the previous one! I love them both, but I think maybe this one edges it for me... xx
