' Blue Christmas'

The challenge this week over at the City Crafter Challenge Blog was choosen by Linda and is 'Blue Christmas',I love Elvis and I can't stop singing the song now,in fact I need to find Elvis Christmas album out for our Xmas crop on Saturday!!!
Here's my 'Blue Christmas' card.




I covered the front of the card with some Basic Grey blue paper and then cut out the centre of the card with the largest circle Nestie.I got some white copier paper and cut an insert to size and embossed it with a Cuttlebug snowflake embossing folder adding stardust Stickles,attach to the inside of the card.I cut out the snowflakes with Nesties and layed them up with 3d foam and added a rhinestone,then positioned it on the card so half of the snowflake overlaps the circle. Lastly I stamped the Waltzingmouse frame and sentiment in TH Tumbled Glass and Stormy Sky Distress Ink,cut out with Nestie Labels #14 and attached to the insert using 3d foam.
Have a good weekend,I'm at our Xmas crop on Saturday and The Clothes Show on Sunday,so I've got a funpacked couple of days.
