November Designer Challenge - Karen Burniston

This months Designer Challenge was a bit of a squeeze.  Long time readers will remember that I do a school table every Christmas and I have been madly making reindeer poop, snowman soup  at every moment I could get.  So today's "day off" goal was to get at least one card made for Karen's November Challenge.  This month the Designer Challenge (still pinch myself little old me is part of this awesome gang) was to make a card with

Crafting RED with Stitched Framelits

Thrilled I managed two cards this morning, had a fun time with making cards

and watching one of my favourite films "legends of the fall"  Some people may like

to listen to music, some silence but I love to put a "me" film on.  One I don't usually

get a chance to watch.  Halfway in I wasn't sure this tearjerker would be good

to watch in fear of it being red with tear drops but I had my sleeve on hand to wipe those drops away (and believe me there were many)

This card above was made using the Labels and Stitched Frames

and some very old Stampendous Stamps that fitted inside the 

frames just lovely.  I love the stitching look it gives.

The snowflake was again a very old punch and the wording was

a cute little wording from Purple Onion Designs.

A lovely piece of bright red backing paper made sure it fitted both

RED and FRAMES

This cute card is actually a 8 x 8 card - the image is

another Purple Onion Design

I love how the little Caroling snowmen fitted inside the largest

of the Sassy Labels  this is a unique shape and I thought it

looked kind of like a bow when placed on the centre of the card like this.

The papers are Carta Bella So this is Christmas collection

and the Noel is a Karen Burniston die from one of her decorator sets 

All in all a good morning and now for a few hours of housework before I need to collect the boys.

Thanks for stopping by. xx
