I wanted to show you this card I made - using the Accordion flip book die - I've been hanging my nose over this die ever since I first saw it on Anne's blog - I've kept trying to but it from Countryview crafts where the price is very good - and free postage too - but it kept going out of stock and then I would miss it when they restocked - anyway I finally managed to get hold of it and here's the first card I made using it. Its for the Christmas challenge over at Crafty Individuals. All three stamps are from Crafty Individuals.
So I'd like to enter this into the following challenges:
Crafty Individuals December challengecraftyindividualsblog: Christmas
Crafty Little Fairiescraftylittlefairieschallenge: Let it snow
Happy Campers:happycamperscc Christmas
As you like it asyoulikeitchallenge- fave stamp - well the santa and the deer are two of my current faves - why? Because of the versatility of them - and the vintage look about the santa - love it to bits.
