Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge - DT Card


Hello to everyone. Another Saturday and another challenge over at the Secret Craft Saturday Challenge. This weeks theme has been set by KIM and the theme is EMBOSSING. This is my DT card for the challenge. I have run a piece of red cardstock through my BigShot using the snowflake Cuttlebug Embossing Folder. I then cut it into a Triangle and and covered with coloured jewels. A sentiment made using my SU punches, Christmas Flower and covered the card with Milky Gems. If you have time, do pop over to look at the other DTs work.
My daughter went to Cologne last night to visit the christmas markets with her school. I would love to go and visit myself one year! I'm hoping to be making more cards and need to sort the clothes out for our holiday to Mauritus, only 14 days to go.
Have yourselves a good weekend!
