Christmas Club challenge 6




It's Sally's turn to set the challenge for us all this week and she wanted to see a card with a Sports theme! I struggled to find an image that looked anyway sporty for Christmas, couldn't believe I hadn't got one:9 Ended up using this Precious Moments ice skating girl. She had bare arms and bare legs so she must have been an indoor skater lol. I gave her nice warm tights and a long sleeved top as I wanted to put her in my little backdrop scene from the FF retro christmas cd.
Remember you are always welcome to join us in the club. We are just a group of ladies who want to get ahead with our Christmas cards and we are at number 6 already!! The list of ladies is in the sidebar. Just drop Clare or Keryn an email and they will get you started.

    A lovely card Pinky - it fits in well with the theme. I really like the background from the cd, will have to look out for that one.

    Hi Pinky

    Hope you are good. My apologies too for lack of visiting .. .. it isn't that we don't want too .. .. it is just that things take over.

    For me it is mainly spring brides at the moment LOL!!

    Loving your Christmas card. Such a dreamy background for your cute image.

    Have a good week.
