LOTV: Christmas Crossover Card

 

Hello,

I haven't had a lot of time in the past week to share many creations (or even craft for that matter!) as I've been busy looking after my pup after his op last week. After a bit of an emergency at the weekend he is now recovering well. So well in fact apart from some bruises, you wouldn't know he'd even had an op! He seems to be getting back to his usual mischievous self.

Anyway, back to my card. I made this for the LOTV August challenge which this month was Christmas. 

It's been a while since I used an LOTV stamp and this is one of my older ones. I love the little girl decorating her Christmas cake, it reminds me a bit of myself as I love to bake at Christmas, mini Christmas cakes, mince pies, gingerbread anything really but it is something that I always associate with the holiday season.

 

I created a crossover card, using Lemoncraft Christmas papers from noor design, matted on green.

I added some pretty lace, flowers and some die cut leaves.

I used an old verse stamp for the inside tag.

Here are some close ups:
