Starry Starry Night ,,,,,, :-)

Happy Halloween !!  Are you going out partying or trick or treating ?? ,,,, NO !!,,, me neither :-),,, a quiet night in front of the telly is in store for me ,,,, such an exciting life I lead ,,,,, :-)

Christmas will be here in a few short weeks and if you haven’t started  your cards yet ,,, then you had better get a wiggle on !!  Luckily there are loads of challenges with Christmassy themes at the mo’ so plenty of scope for linking :-)

It is Miria’s turn to host the ABC Christmas Challenge and the theme for the next 2 weeks is ,,, 

V FOR VIBRANT ,,, 

so we would like to see nice bright colours this time :-)

We are sponsored by the lovely Dulcie from the Wild Rose Studio so a choice of 2 stamps on offer :-)

and the Crop Stop who will be giving a $15 Gift Certificate :-)

For my card I used this gorgeous Starry Night image from the Wild Rose Studio :-)




Is it cheating to use an Xmas Bella printed panel ? :-)  I love these,, when you’re pushed for time you can make a quick and easy card in minutes ! The papers are from an  Xmas Bella pack too. I added a couple of Memory Box stars and a few hearts die cut using a Holiday Shapes die, and some ribbons and a LOTV sentiment to finish :-)


Thanks for looking :-) the DT have made some gorgeous cards so hop on over to the ABC Xmas Challenge to see them :-)

Challenges :
Sketch Saturday ,,,,,, Sketch
Crafty Ann’s ,,,,, Christmas

Gorgeous card Lols, especially love the colour scheme.
I don't think it's cheating because I couldn't cope without some toppers/panels. There is always the last minute or forgotten card, especially for me, and it's so much quicker than stamping and colouring! x
