Ho ho ho? I don't think so!!!

This is my first ever easel card. I know most crafty bloggers have made dozens of these already but I am running a bit behind. I am blogging this card but it was a complete nightmare to make and has lots of flaws and imperfections. There are smudges, uneven edges, uneven stamping, wonky matting and layering, everything that could have gone wrong did! I was totally clumsy at every stage of putting the card together!

This was made with another of my new Greeting Farm stamps. The papers are Basic Grey scraps leftover from Christmas cards and the charm is from Quixotic paperie. I had to use Stickles to hide some smudging on the hat. The wonky ribbon is from my stash.
I hope you have a lovely evening. I won't be touching anymore of my Craft stash to avoid any more crafting mishaps!

  3. Hi Jane,
    It's a beautiful card and I can't see any imperfections! Anyway, that's the charm of handmade cards they are made by real people unlike those shop bought jobs that all look the same! xx
