Jingle Belles Card 26 ...

Hello to you ... 
It is a beautiful hot ... yes hot! Sunday here and I intend to spend time in my craft room ... 
I am going away in a couple of weeks for a very much needed break ... so I have a lot to do before then ...
right now I have just finished my card for Jingle Belles Rock week 26 ... this week the theme is "Lonely This Christmas ... " which basically means that we are to make something to go with our card ... so it won't be lonely ... this can be a tag ... a gift bag ... a box ... anything really ... and Jingle Belles has also teamed up with Order of the Opus Gluei  for this challenge so if you are doing the challenge ... don't forget to link up to both blogs 
Here's my card .....


Quite simple really ... and I made a couple of tags to go with it ...


The paper is digital from DHD and though it doesn't look it ... it is a lovely soft aqua .. and I used it on card number 9 Here ... but I guess the lighting today is making it difficult to photograph ...


Now I really need to get some DT work done ... have a lovely day sweet friends and thank you for stopping by and leaving such lovely comments ... I am very grateful

Till soon 

~ Ros ~

Ros - these are wonderful - that paper is beautiful and I love the color - very rich and yet gentle too. Perfect with your embellishments and design. Love that you carried the inspiration to your tags as well. Thank you for taking on the joint challenge and playing with us at Opus Gluei and the Jingle Belles!

Beautiful Christmas ensmeble! Love the glittered stars, Ros! How lovely to be going on vacation. Hope you enjoy! It is only fitting that the sun is out for the middle Sunday of Wimbeldon! sunshine and no tennis, I am in withdrawal! Have a fun rest of your day!

Blue, glitter, cream and kraft. You got me :)
At first your card and tags looked quite simple but after I gave it a better look I also found one of the things you always add to your projects. A feminine, elegant touch. Fabulous! Gorgeous take on the challenge!
Have a lovely evening!
