I hope you’re all much more organised than I am and ready – or almost – for a wonderful Christmas…
Just thought I’d post a few more Christmas cards I made, some using images from my stash.
I found a few of this gorgeous image, clear embossed and, as it was black and white, decided to follow that theme two different ways.
Black on white…
…and White on Black.
I must point out that the above background was stamped beautifully and the white embossing powder was perfect…until I dropped it on my knee and wiped half of it off 
Another image I found was this one, so I smooshed Oxides over it and stamped the border in Versafine grey, using PSX (how long have I had that then???) detail embossing powder.
There’s a ‘Joyful’ challenge at Time Out and an angel challenge at Moo Mania and More, so I’ll link to those.
I needed cards for special friends, so I rooted out my Celtic Christmas stamps for this. I made another one with the candles, but I’m not happy with it…
I have no idea where that white streak is from – hopefully it’s on the scanner bed!
One more simple offering, which actually looks much better in real life because the background is sponged with irridescent inks…
I’ll link to the following challenges:-

Thank you for popping in to visit…
See you soon

Wow, what a bunch of gorgeous artwork, dear Cath.
Thank you for joining us at MOO MANIA & MORE
Have a wonderful weekend
I also like the imperfection Cath. I wouldn't have noticed it until you mentioned it. I do hate it though when I drop things, or drop something onto something else and it leaves a mark, like on wet paint. Great cards. I really like the blue and purple card with the angel. It is full of joy. Hugs-Erika
I love this selection of cards Cath, the black and white two look so classy..
I didn't notice any small faults until you said there were some. Don't be to critical with yourself they all look fabulous.
