Jingle Belles Card 39

Hello sweet friends ...
Thank you all so much for your kind words, your thoughts and your prayers following the loss of my Uncle  ... it means a lot to know people care ...
I went to club night on Thursday and maybe it was my imagination but I seemed to get far more hugs than usual ... it was so lovely ... the class was extremely busy ... and though they may be mentally and physically challenge ... they have such compassion and love ... it lifted my spirits no end ...

I have my 39th card done for this weeks' challenge at Jingle Belles Rock the prompt this week being "Here Comes Suzy Snowflake" brought to us by Marie Bingaman based on the Rosemary Clooney song ... I confess that my creative mojo has been up in the air somewhere these past few days .. not good when trying to finish my DT projects before I go away ... sort out projects for the club and keep up with Jingle Belles ... But I did come up with something ...


I thought this Bo Bunny sticker was quite apt ... I like to adhere these to CS first ...
Some glitter card and a felt cut snowflake ... (glittered of course) ... backed onto some lovely satin ribbon
complete a simple card ... and just for a little more bling ... a crystal drop and a pretty star shaped jewel
(an odd earring actually!)


It's a dull wet day here so my photos are not too brilliant ... Never mind ... next week I will be soaking up some sunshine and relaxing (I hope) ... 

Have a wonderful weekend ... and thanks so much for stopping by

oh ♥WOW♥! i have loved every single one of your JB cards this year... but this one has gotta be REALLY HIGH on that list, as well: first just for its amazing beauty by anyone's standard; and then ALSO for how wonderfully well it encapsulates the prompt: snow-white... snow-flakes... sparkle and elegance... just a touch of vintage glamour!!! this is basically the ultimate expression --in paper-- of miss rosemary clooney singing the song! awesome! ♥

Gorgeous card, Ros! Very peaceful and serene, like snowfall! I hope there will be lots of relaxation next week. Until then I hope you have a good evening.

Yes, I know how it feels, of course you're more sensitive now so you feel things more intensely, but that's only normal. Glad you feel the support of so many... Your Christmas card is lovely, love how you embellished your snowflake and yes, I've been thinking about you, it's good to be abroad for a while... Hugs, Ira

such a lovely card. the colours are great and the sentiment is perfect - I will have to remember that quote. I do the happy dance when it starts to snow so it's appropriate for me! great use of non craft items!
