Anyway, I'm happy I managed to create a quick Christmas card for a couple of my favourite challenges. Once again, I have been saved by something from my UFO box or, rather, my snippets box. I had this snippet of an alcohol ink background which fitted just perfectly behind the aperture of my die cut NBUS tree by CUTplorations, that I had die cut from a panel of glitter card (Marianne Design). For my background I used a panel of rustic cream cardstock (PTI) that I scored using my score board.
To finish off, I added a few gold glitter jewels that seem to pick up the darker streaks from my AI background.
I'm playing at:

This Christmas card is lovely. Your inky snippet fit so perfectly here and looks great. The gems you added are just the right colour.

Quick and wonderful is all I can say! And I'm glad to hear relief household chore-wise is in sight... with the house and everything, I was really glad to find someone to clean every other week. So I'm sort of hoping I will soon get to start activities in my creative nook again.
