Hey Everyone
Hope you’re having a great Saturday! It’s absolutely pouring here in Melbourne and it doesn’t look like it’s going stop very soon. I made this card for the Bah Humbug challenge at Just Add Ink this week where we had to create a Christmas card without using a Christmas Stamp or Christmas DSP – we could only use a Christmas Greeting. This one stumped but after brainstorming with my mum (thanks Jude!) I came up with the following card. Well, that was after I made a mad dash to the supermarket this morning to pick up the candy cane as I didn’t have one in my house (I had even resorted to looking for a stale one from last year but gave up coz I thought that would be gross!).
Thanks for stopping by.
This card was chosen as a Top Pick this week.

Love this card. Its so pretty and festive.
I love the pocket you have made to hold your ‘fresh’ candy cane. Thanks for going out of your way to join us at JAI this week.
Wow Narelle I love this – soooo cute. Lol I can just imagine you dashing around in the rain! Huge effort and well worth it.
Love the tag its a great idea candy cane sets it off
This is cute. I love how you have made the pocket to hold the candy cane. Fresh is best, I not long ago threw out some of last year’s leftovers that were turning into a huge sticky mess. Blergh.
I love the little pocket you’ve made Narelle. The bow and flowers are gorgeous! Glad you could play at JAI this week.
