Christmas Stamp a a Stack

Hi All

 A really miserable day on the South coast with it pouring all day. My craft room has been looking a real mess for so while and I keep losing things (might be my age!) so I made a visit to Ikea and bought some banana fibre storage boxes. I have worked all afternoon and now it is looking great and so I am going to try to keep it that way. I even managed to make 2 cards, so I have had a very productive day

Yesterday we had our Christmas Stamp a Stack where we were joined by a lovely group of ladies who made 12 cards during the day
These are the cards they produced during the morning:


Two cards using Festive a Flurry using two colours which I love, Raspberry Ripple and Midnight Muse.

Two gatefold cards using Medallion Daydreams 
Two cards using Ornament a Keepsakes

Lovely as a tree

Image
Both the Less is More Challenge and the Simply Stampin Challenge have asked for cards using leaves as  inspiration this week.
The Lovely as a Tree stamp set is a beautiful  set which I recently purchased but have not used yet so this was a good chance to use it. The first one inspired me so much that I made a second one. The layout for both is similar. They both have double score lines above and below the image. The first one uses the oak leaves and the acorn which was stamped in Chocolate Chip and then  blended using the blender pen with a little Pumpkin Pie. The second card uses the group of trees and then underneath the score lines I have stamped the small leaf in Chocolate Chip,Pumpkin Pie and Old Olive.
