First Christmas card this year!!

Lots of people are posting Christmas cards on their blogs, so I thought maybe

I should make a start on mine too!! Chris and I made this one together yesterday

afternoon and I am really pleased with it.  I wanted to try a diorama card

and my SU sister Sally Jo has put a tutorial on how to do this -you can find it here.

I used 1/2 a sheet of A4 card in Cherry Cobbler.
Used the Framelits dies to cut the aperture in the front,
 and then cut a Whisper White  frame for the centre back..
Stamped the Christmas trees on this, then stamped and cut out the penguins after colouring in.
(Christmas trees and penguins from the Polar Party stamp-set)
A fine line of white glue applied around the aperture and glitter on top of this.
Merry Christmas sentiment from petite Pairs stampset.
And voila - there you have it -  my first Christmas card.
The Wednesday ladies made this last night and loved it.
I am hoping that the Thursday ladies will love it too!
