I hope you've had a good weekend. The temperature has certainly gone down here with Saturday being the coldest day we've had for a long time.
I've made a quick card here by upcycling a card received last year. I don't save many, but the ones I think I could do something with go into a drawer.
I cut the gold glittered tree and sentiment out with a stitched rectangle die and glued it onto gold mirri card. Another stitched rectangle was cut and I added four small strips of mirri card to this, glued it onto a hammered white card base and added four gold gems to match. This was a super quick make, I think the part that took the longest was deciding on the layout!
I would like to enter these challenges:

ABC Christmas - V for very quick
Allsorts - Pearls and/or Gems
Crafter's Castle - Winter/Christmas
