Sugar Nellie Xmas card


So here's my entry for this weeks Spoon Full Of Sugar challenge where the theme was to use check patterns and also for the My Time To Craft challenge where the theme was circles.
yes i know it's a little early for xmas cards but i couldn't get the bits i wanted for my first card idea off the laptop as there's no ink in our printer so couldn't print the papers i wanted...so i recycled a few bits of xmas stuff and made this card instead.
I used; sugar nellie image (from donna) all watercoloured in xmas colours, check print ribbon (from a cake originally lol), green cardstock, merry christmas peel off, 4 red gems, brown paper with xmas pattern and circles from a hole punch to make snow :)
