Holly and the Ivy challenge and Christmas card throwdown.

 My next card is for the Holly and the Ivy challenge where it is anything goes.

I've used 3 more small wood veneer trees on this card with a wooden background. It gives a male aspect to me. I often have requests for men's Christmas cards so this will definitely sell.


*********************************************************************************

At 52 Christmas card throwdown there is a recycling challenge.


I've made this card using some packaging that looks like fabric for my neutral reindeer background.

I used an offcut from a 12x12 paper pad featuring stripes on rest of my card.


The ribbon was cut from a label tag from something I bought


and my sentiment came from an old Christmas card. So, the only new things are the 2 reindeers.

Here it is!

Love how you used all your different elements together. Also never thought to use tag ribbons and such for crafting. You have given me a new thing to keep an eye out for. Thanks for playing along at 52CCT and welcome from a fellow Aussie crafter :)
