The background I did in Craft Artist using the Haberdashery Christmas digikit. The sentiment on the green label I did with my Xyron design runner. (I'm still finding things that haven't seen the light of day since the move.) and the Christmas tree is an EI stamp - coloured with brush markers. A couple of buttons and a bit of gold stretchy thread to finish it off. I wish I could get the knack of adding lots of extras but never seem to be able to manage it. Chicken I think is the phrase - or is it lack of imagination. Either way it's not got a lot stuck on it but it will go through the 5mm post thingy.
Off to Zumba shortly with my daughter. Wish me luck!
Thanks very much for visiting.

I don't think a card as lovely as this needs lots of extras Beryl, it's gorgeous as it is. It's wonderful to have you joining us again.

A lovely card Beryl. At first glance I thought you had been patient and cross stitched around the edge of this.

A lovely card and image, thanks for sharing with us at CD Sunday, Wendy x
I think this card is perfect Beryl. I love embellies but not on overload. The 'cross stitch' on your card is very convincing, lol!
Well done on crossing one Christmas card off your list. I bet I leave it to the last minute like I have for the past two years.

Oh Wow! I love this! I love the swirly tree image :) This is really perfect for the Christmas challenge at Crafty Ann's this week. Thank you so much for linking up and playing along with us :)
This is beautiful, Beryl. I thought the BG was fabric too - very nice Craft Arty work :)
IMHO the buttons, gold thread and label are just enough - it would've been a shame to cover up your lovely BG.
