This week our challenge at Bah! Humbug! may have everyone bursting into song as the theme is to create something inspired by a Christmas Carol or Song.
I chose the song 'Frosty the Snowman', mainly because it gave me chance to use one of the oh so cute snowmen on a sheet of Penny Black Stickeroos that have found their way into my stash. The border across the middle of my card was also part of the set and led to me using the purple and lime green colour theme on my card. Quite an unusual combination, but it is growing on me - I think! After using charms for our challenge last week another 'made with love' silver heart found it's way on to the tag again. I do like these little hearts - they may be appearing on loads of stuff from now on.
As our theme could be either a carol or a song I decided that perhaps I should burst with enthusiasm (oooooooh that doesn't happen often) and do both so (bearing in mind that I'm knee deep in washing and ironing here) I also managed a very quick Kanban kit card to go with the carol 'We Three Kings'. The card kit was in a 'goodie bag' I bought recently and I wouldn't have normally chose it as I find die cut decoupage so annoying for so many reasons, but I suppose it was okay to create this super fast card.
So if you would like to join in do pop over to Bah! Humbug! and take a look at the fab designs by my team mates Irene and Max.
OOOOOoh nearly forgot to mention that while I was away the team at Bah! Humbug! had their 15 mins (well okay perhaps ony 5 but still) of fame and were featured in Let's Make Cards magazine. How exciting is that? Click on the link to check out the details.

I lurrrrve the purple and green combo' - very modern and different so guaranteed to stand out from the crowd.
So tell me how come you had time to make 2 cards when you've just come home from holiday, are wading through a mountain of washing AND are preparing to go back to work ... and I only managed one despite being at home? HUH?? Reckon I must just be lazier than you LOL!
I'm not a love of die-cut decoupage either but your 3 kings card is super - as are you =)
