CCAYR DT

Pinch punch first of the month everyone and Hello to April too!! 

I am here with a Christmas creation today for
Our April challenge at
Christmas Cards All Year Round
which is Christmas Ornaments (check out the challenge blog for full details) and is sponsored by 


and I chose to showcase Daniel's Tree.


The fabulous Finnish Star tutorial came from the lovely Jayne over at Tea, Cake and Crafting. I used A4 paper printed on both sides with contrasting Pink Petticoat digi papers and actually it worked just fine. I did cheat a little and used the pre coloured image of Daniel.


Here he is close up, matted onto complimentary Coredinations and a bit of silver card. The ribbon was a perfectly matching "find" in my ribbon arsenal!!

Some challenges to play along with

Allsorts #304 - Feature a Creature
yHolly Joll - Feature a Creature
Try it on Tuesday - They who have wings

Have a good day everyone ooh and I just want to congratulate my blogging buddies who have been invited onto the LOTV Design Collective...well done to you all xx
