Christmas candles

Good morning everyone, I hope all is well in your world. What a beautiful morning it is, everywhere is white with frost and it looks so pretty :o)
I am on holiday for a week now...all together now YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY...so I meant to enjoy myself. I do have to take the car in for service on Tuesday but that is just one day out of the eight I have! Tomorrow I am off to Belper river gardens to meet up with Mol from Docrafts so I am looking forward to that ;o)
On to my card for today. Yes, it's another simple one, with postage rates being so high I like to keep the ones for posting fairly flat! I have made some non Christmas cards too but can't put them on yet in case they are seen!


White linen card base folded and cut to 5x7.
Pearlised white card embossed with Craft Concepts folder, then lightly sponged with Memento inks, then matted with orange Bazzill from scrap box. Added tree handcut from white glittercard scrap, sentiment stamp from ?   :o)

It's a beautiful here as well Jackie, the -4 frost has given way to sunshine.

Never apologise about simplicity on your cards because that gives such a lovely feel of elegance.

Hope you enjoy your day out at Belper.

I love how you do simple designs, Jackie, they always come out really elegant.
When I try to make flat cards they always look like they are missing something lol.
