Christmas Pine and Bells





When I was looking through my draft posts I found this card which fits in with a few Christmas Challenges. Image from Power Poppy coloured with Promarkers. A relatively CAS design and card  with minimal embellishments, nice and flat for posting.

Miserable weather here , low cloud and lots of showers.

Thanks for popping in, I appreciate the time you take to leave a comment.

Gorgeous bell card, Meg! Your coloring is so beautiful and I especially love how you colored the bells. They look so real.
The dry embossed panel and the stitched frame add so much interest and naturally bring your eye to the focal image. Thank you so much for sharing this beauty with us at CAS Christmas!
