This fortnights challenge over at the Christmas Card Club has been set by Maureen, and she's hoping to see cards featuring Christmas activities- Sleighs, Sledges, Skiing. The only stamps I have along this line are from Card-io, in their scene building sets, and one, called Festive Fun, has stamps of Sledges, and an Ice Skater.My first card features a Snow Globe, called Crystal Globe. The tree-line is from the same set. The snowflakes are from another set called Winters Kiss, which has half a dozen or so different sized and shaped snowflakes.
My second card starts with a snowflake wreath, made up from an assortment of snowflake stamps, in various blue Memento inkpads- Danube Blue, Nautical Blue and Bahama Blue.
The trees are Card-io again, Winter Woods, the dog walker & skater are both from Festive Fun.
Matted this one onto some pale blue glitter card, and I rounded the corners on both pieces.
So those are my offerings for this fortnight.

Two gorgeous cards Shaz, can't go wrong with Card-io stamps, love your snow globe, and the winter scene on your second card is lovely. Love the wreath, I never get mine completely round, yours is beautifully created, Kate x
Two gorgeous cards Shaz...loving those cardio stamps and the lovely scenes you have built with them....xxx
Two wonderful cards to celebrate Mo's fun challenge theme. These images certainly fit the bill, and I love each one of them. The snowflake wreath encasing the winter fun is such a great way to frame and draw the eye right in. The snowglobe was quite delightful too. I love both of these! TFS
Two beautiful cards, Shaz. I love them both. The snow globe idea is a big hit with me. I had not thought of that myself...and it is perfect for the theme!
Sure wish I could have taken every single person I "know" in England, out for tea, but DH is very reserved and just luckily for me, he struck up a friendship with Sue T's DH Steve! So I did learn some inky tricks like you already know, and I learn and get some of the ovely cardio stamps.
I wish I could time my next trip around one of the big stamp and stamp goodies sales...now that would be fun!
Hi Shaz
