It can't be that time already?!

No, I'm not crazy or ultra organised but responding to a team challenge on UKS set by a fellow teamie who wanted us to plan/make our Christmas cards. Despite wanting to resist the idea of thinking about Christmas in July, I didn't want to let her down so I teamed the idea with a prompt from Shimelle about making your own embellishments.

I started by choosing a range of co-ordinating papers from my scrap pile and then cutting them into various sized circles before inking the edges. I also choose a range of co-ordinating embellishments from my stash, which were mainly snowflake related in a range of blues and silvers. I also found some rub ons, stickers, chipboard and bling to match. Using glue and foam dot, I layered the paper circles and embellishments til I had about 12 different circle embellishents. Using some more co-ordinated paper including some glitter paper, I created the backgrounds which I finished with some machine stitching. I then added the circle embellishments in various positions, raising some with more foam dots to add interest.
