Jingle Belles Card 27 ...

Good morning ...
It's a beautiful hot and sunny day here in the UK ... I know it's not set to last but we are enjoying it whilst we can ...
I have my 27th card completed for the Jingle Belles challenge which this week is all about Stars and Stripes ... because of course you lovely people from the USA are celebrating Independence Day... so 
HAPPY 4TH JULY!!!
I hope you all have a wonderful fun filled day ... 

This week we can either use stars or stripes or both ... I went with both ...


The papers I think are Papermania ... I'm not sure ... the little deer is Websters Pages (digital) ... printed and fussy cut together with a vintage image from the web ...  ribbon, wooden glittery star, twine and paper lace are from my stash ...


I'm off to Pilates now ... so have yourselves a happy day ... each day should be a celebration don't you think?

Keep safe

Christmas in July reminds me to get started on my holiday cards. Have a good pilates session. I've always wanted to try but been to chicken to start

That digital deer is just too cute ... so far I've resisted investing in Webster's Pages Digital, but may have to go do some shopping ... Hope you enjoyed Pilates ... I need to sign-up for another session ... love the glitter on this card too ... so glad you joined us at jingle belles.

Ros, I am always envious of your cards. Each one is so lovely... and this is no exception. I adore the deer, love the muted color scheme... it's all gorgeous.
We are off to my granddaughter's birthday party... her birthday is the 3rd, but they are having the party on the 4th because of the holiday.
Have a great Monday!

Oh that deer is a dear allright! I'm fond of those elegant animals, if only for that look in their eyes! Lovely card Ros, nice combination of different papers, too! Hope your legs weren't tangled up during Pilates ;-)

Webster's Pages has digital? I am doomed. I LOVE that deer. Oh, and the rest of your card is fabby, too. :)

WV: kenonati
A combination of Keno and Karate, which totally trumps your silly Pilates any time. (And I hope I never meet you in a dark alley to discuss this, either.)

Did I already comment? Anyway, to answer your question, WV = Word Verification - the Captcha word that is presented when we comment. It's fun to use it in a sentence. :)

I love the soft colors you've used and the deer is so sweet. The punched border is such a special touch.
