More traditional Christmas



Morning Peeps, time for this weeks Prickly Pear DT share plus one or two more which I probably should have shared last week. All feature the lovely Poinsettia stamps and matching dies................think it's clear by now I love these...........and all other dies are Cheery Lynne.


Love these sweet children who I think are watching for Santa ?


Thanks so much for popping in and hope your week is a good one.

    Beautiful cards Brenda!
    I made a card with the paper you used on the first card too.
    Just have to wait til it arrives to the receiver before I post it on the blog.

    Hope you are feeling good!
    Hugs
    Susan.

    I can see that you love the poinsettia stamps with the dies & quite understand why - I have to admit I think of Christmas when I see these flowers. I particularly like your first one with your striking use of the lace with scallops up & down combined with the lovely vibrant red matting to contrast with the various subdued greens. In your second sample it's the lovely contrast between the white & red with the touch of green holly that draws my attention& with your final one it's the way your patterned paper is used for the paper piecing & the background.
    With much love

    Fab cards and love the use of the frames. My fav is the last one and I have that stamp but didn't get time to use her, love the paper piecing.
    BTW - the embossing folder was the mistletoe one and is on the way to me!
    Merry Christmas and a happy and healthy 2014.
