The dreaded one layer.......

Evening everyone I hope you're not suffering unduly with this awful weather.
I've just popped in with my card for this weeks LIM challenge which is

ONE LAYER 
cards again this week and we have a super fun theme for you to adhere to!
It's SANTA!


Apologies for the photo quality! I drew and cut out a bell mask and used a grey ink through it. I stamped my Santa and glittered his hat and added some red berries with a paper pen. The sentiment is embossed in silver. The card stock is white linen but I will try for a better photo tomorrow!

Last weekend we had a big family afternoon tea party to celebrate my SiL and BiL's 80th birthdays. It was a lovely weekend and I'm just sharing a couple of cards with you. My BiL's card is on my previous post but this box card held their present and the centre stepper card was for my SiL.




The last card was for my BiL Tony, Karen's husband who was 70 last week.


Well that's all my news for now
TTFN :0)

  2. You did well with the dreaded one layer - I invariably get unwanted blobs on mine and have to stick something to hide them - no longer one layer then of course!. The other cards are great and I'm sure the recipients loved them.

  4. I find one layers really hard to do too, and it often requires several attempts before I'm close to achieving something satisfactory. I like how you placed the Santa within a stenciled bell, nice effect and detail!
