My it's chilly here ...
This morning was sunny and crisp and my husband and I took a trip to Costa Coffee (our favourite thing to do) and then a lovely stroll around Allerton road ... Ok ... so that probably means nothing to you ... but any Beatles fans out there know it is where the famous Penny Lane is ... not that far from where I live.... Now the sun has gone down it's positively freezing!
I had the urge to do some embossing with one of my TH stamps ... I haven't used this in a while so I tried it for a Christmas card ...
The BG paper is again the digital from Pink Petticoat and I stamped onto black paper then embossed with clear embossing powder ...
I guess it's a kind of 'across the miles' card
I have to say that apart from my Pink Petticoat digitals ... which you will be seeing more of in some DT projects ... I haven't bought any Christmas themed papers this year ...
It's all about utilising the things you have ... which leaves me money to buy new dies or stamps occasionally ...
I hope you are having a lovely Sunday
Stay warm

So very pretty! Love the sweet reindeer. I know of Penny Lane...how fun that you live so close. :)

This is beautiful. Love the colours and design!
You are right, I haven't buy any paper for a long long time besides those at Michael's, where they have 4 for a $1, and it was mostly cardstock I bought from them.
Yep, next time my girls go to England again, I have to tell them to to penny lane.
Very pretty...you sure have an eye for detail...and I haven't bought new Christmas paper or stamps either...well, maybe a bit...lol...stunning work as always!!
Mmmm love black on black - almost as much as white on white lol Your little pine sprig adds just the right pop of colour and I love your sparkly deer.
Another beautiful card Ros!
Hugs:)
I love this one... its stunning!!! Hugs...xoxo
This is a beautiful card, Ros, love the black and white and a pop of color! Hope it warms up for you.
Love the way you use a postal theme on your cards, Ros! Your glittered deer is so sweet!
I know Allerton Road and surrounding area....in my mind I often go back to the 'pool'
cold here too today, something to do with the wind. Nice work!
Paris would be cold too in the winter
