Christmas continued

On Thursday I posted 3 christmas cards that I'd made using pictures cut from a very cheap set of bought cards......I made 6 cards altogether.....here's the other 3.
The Fancy Pants embellishment pack was great value with over 100 pieces in it....I think I'll be using it on all my christmas cards.
I used an A5 card for the last one.......for a change.....though I think I do prefer the 6 x 6.
And for something completely different.....yesterday I went to the Knitting and Stitching Show at Alexandra Palace with a group of friends.....what a great day.....so much inspiration......so I may be back to stitching next week!!

Your cards are gorgeous! I love the burlap and all the layers. Anyone receiving them will be lucky!

I so wish I'd gone to the show yesterday, but looking forward to seeing what you bought.

I think how you've used these cards, is really clever

The hessian strips and the stars are the perfect addition. I like the 6x6 format best too.
