Morning and I have a star card to share today now I made my first one on Thursday (but can't blog that one yet and couldn't believe how easy it was first attempt ---so first mistake decided to make a Christmas one-now after my first result I got a bit cocky and came unstuck!!!I stamped and watercoloured a poinsettia image three times and decoupaged then misjudged pattern on my papers so that was another bin entry!
I die-cut a circle from glittery mirri card and added the flowers got as far as taking the pic and the poinsettias looked rubbish so they came off-papers and sentiment -also stamped sentiment were craft mag freebies-first topper also went in the bin and decided to go with this one even though not entirely happy with result.The sparkly snowflakes were gifted from another blogger-thank you Dionne.The first word of sentiment is not covered it was the angle I took the pic---trust me lol.

So that was quite a job Carol, but the result is impressive.
I made these once in the past, I did not immediately find it easy, but people learn by doing.
Your paper is also very beautiful.
Have a nice Sunday and best regards xx

A great card Carol, I've not seen that design before, but it does look complicated, great choice of papers, they complement each other so well.

What a fabulous new fun fold you have, Carol! It's a gorgeous card, even if you think it's not - I love it! Thanks for sharing your wonderful creation! hugs, de
Ha ha, thank you for the shout-out Carol. I am so pleased you were able to find a use for the little snowflakes - they were made with a Sizzix Bigz die, which I got from Stampin' Up, I think they called the die Snow Flurry.
I love this shape card, if it is as easy as you say, I may have a go at making some star easel cards myself (I suspect I shall spend the rest of the evening watching tutorials). Such a great idea for Christmas - it has a great visual impact.

Now, don't make another one like this, you've reached perfection so don't court less! heehee Make some nice simpler ones! It's too hot for Christmas but I'm giving in as well.

Well, this one turned out pretty well, such a good design for a Christmas card and with sparkle too. That often happens to me - the first time I do something I am surprised at how easily it worked, then I try again and can't get it to work at all! xx
Wonderful card and design. I keep meaning to have ago at this design.
