St Lukes Charity Card Challenge...


Well another month has passed by and its time for another Challenge over at St Lukes Charity Card challenge and our challenge for you this month is called 'DECK THE HALLS'....this means any kind of Christmas card, any design and any theme.
For my card I have used a Penny Black stamp called 'Xmas Light'.  The candle actually looks crooked but I have checked the stamp and thats how it is!!
Stamped my image with S.U. Real Red ink and them just drawn the colour down into the image and then sponged lightly around the edge of the image.
 Cuttlebugs Mistletoe embossing folder has been used to mount the image. Punches used are Nellie Snellin fower punch, S.U. oval, label, window punch and the leaves from a MaGill punch.
Lili of the Valley  have very kindly sponsored us this month and all you have to do to be in with a chance to these two fabulous stamps is to join in our challenge.... 

I shall look forward to seeing all your wonderful cards.
