Christmas in January ? Oh NO


I'm a bit disappointed with the photo as the buttons are much redder than shown. Who says the camera never lies.The paper and reindeer stamp were magazine freebies ,sentiment stamp from 'Lucys'.
Tuesday Morning sketches -  181 -Use the sketch and two different ribbons -I've used a green and red tartan ribbon and teamed with a plain red one.
Craftyhazelnut's Christmas challenge -  108 -Recycle or use something free. Reindeer stamp and background paper free with 'Australian Simply Cards' magazine - Tartan ribbon given to me by a friend about 8 years ago ,buttons recycled from old clothing .

Love the card Gail. I really like that plaid piece under the red ribbon. Christmas in January? Well, you're certainly getting ahead of things. Thanks for joining us at Tuesday Morning Sketches.

The layered ribbons look very pretty, and I love the buttons lined up under the sentiment. You are getting an excellent head start on Christmas! Thanks for joining us at Tuesday Morning Sketches!

No worries Gail ... but you probably wont get this in 11 months ... They are reduced so only about 2.26 Aus. Dollars ...
