Hi Folks

Today sees the start of a new challenge over at Crafting Musketeers.  The theme for this month's challenge is:

Christmas in October

Our sponsor for this challenge is Bridlington Stationers who are offering a fab prize of a Limited Edition Autumn/Winter set of promarkers.  I am so jealous as I still need to get this set.

Here is a little bio about our sponsor.

Here is my inspiration project

This is another card where I created the background using the Sizziz hexagon die.  After assembling the patchwork onto some sticky paper I die cut the shape and then added some faux stitching.  This was then mounted onto red coredinations and then onto my card blank which I cut myself from a grande die.  The sentiment is from Papermania.  For embellishments I added a poinsettia flower and a die cut snowflake.  I did add some glitter and frantage to the snowflake.  Some little gold gems in the corners finished the card.

Thanks for popping by and looking forward to seeing all your creations.  Just pop over to Crafting Musketeers to upload your entry.  Don't forget to check out the fab creations from the rest of the design team too.
