Well this is the earliest that I have ever made a Xmas Card, but I thought, it would get me to look through my stash and see what I have, I thought I would join in the challenge at http://christmasblogchallenge.blogspot.com/ at Winter Wonderland, the layout was nice, and again it took me out off my comfort zone, making me mix patterns, which I have never done in the past, I was more used to using plain coloured paper and Mirri card to add sparkle. Hope you like them.
