At A Gem of a Challenge his week we want to see your Christmas cards. The Dt have all used one of Janet's new images and I chose Winter Ella as I really wanted to try colouring an image using just grey Copics. It didn't photograph that well and I have to say the shading looks better in real life. I used the Authentique Wintery papers again with some ribbon from Crafty Ribbons and a Memory Box snowflake diecut from white glitter card. I hope you will join in the fun and get cracking with those Christmas cards.
I said yesterday that my 70's girl was an appropriate image. The reason was that we went to Potter's at Hopton yesterday, with a couple of friends, for a one night break. It was our first time of staying there and the reason we went was to see Bjorn Again, the Abba tribute band. We had a 5 course meal with wine, show, overnight stay, lots of activities and breakfast this morning. You can stay as long as you like for the 2 days. It is less than an hour from us and they have some great shows on there so I am sure we will be going again.

Fantastic fun card, love the elephant it's beautifully coloured and looks great with the papers you chose, lovely to read about your short break.
Sounds like a great overnight stay and the previous days card was a perfect tribute to an Abba concert. I love your card today the design and stamp are perfect and i loved the title. Its strange how some colours just don't like the camera mine always struggles with greens Enjoy the weekend love and hugs Carole x

I sat and watched Mama Mia all the way through at the weekend (first time I have seen the whole film) and really found it to be fun. Hope you had a great time seeing the tribute band.
