The last of my red set

Good morning everyone, what a glorious start to the day with wall to wall blue skies and sunshine. I hope all is well in your world, Hugs.
These 3 cards are the last of my red set, making 9 in all and bringing my total number of Christmas cards so far to around 40 fo this year!




I have really enjoyed making them.
Base cards are white hammered from Papermill Direct many years ago, folded and cut to 6x6.
Apertures cut with Spellbinders Nesties.
Papers are a mixture of HOTP and Basic grey, also from many years ago!
Stamps used are SU, Stamps and Smiles and ?  Dies used are Memory Box and ?
They are the last of my aperture cards, for now at any rate :o)

You've seen the blue set, now here is the red set

Good morning everyone, I hope all is well in your world...hugs.
I opened the curtains this morning and what did I see? Yes, rain, rain and more rain :o(
Oh well, there's nothing we can do about it so we may as well make the best of it!

I am off to Long Eaton this morning to take Stephen for his speech therapy.
I took him for his neuro therapy on Tuesday and he is doing so well that they asked him to make his own way there next week to see if he can plan a journey okay.  He goes out every day and uses his bus pass a lot, but he just gets on the bus to anywhere without planning, so they are really testing him now. No doubt I will be on tenterhooks while he is gone but I am sure that he will be alright (says she biting on her knuckles, LOL)

Anyhow, time to get onto my cards for today. I said when I posted the blue set that I was thinking of making a red set too, and here they are, or at least some of them!






All base cards are white hammered from the Papermill shop years ago, folded and cut to 6x6, then apertures cut with Spellbinder's Nesties.
Papers are from stash, also from years ago. They are HOTP except for the spotty one, which is Basic Grey.
Dies used are Memory Box,  flower punches are Woodware, and poinsettia is an SVG file from Penny Duncan and cut on the Cricut.
Various stamps used with Memento inkpad.
I hope you like them :o)

Tattered floral

Good morning everyone, I hope you are all well or getting there...hugs
I've been rummaging in my stash and thought it was about time I used some papers. I haven't bought any for 5 years but still have lots of them!
Everything used in the making of this card is from stash.


I used white hammered card from the PMS folded and cut to 6x6 for the base card.
I covered the card with what I think is Basic Grey paper, but there is no name on it so I can't be sure!
The flower is a TH Tattered Floral die cut, and the edges are inked with Big and Juicy.
Foliage is a Memory Box die cut from a scrap of PDA card.
Sentiment is stamped with My Creative Time.
The gem is from some I bought way back in the mists of time :o)
