Fussy and Fancy DT Call

Morning everyone lol - I'm off to bed in a bit given that it nearly 2am, but before I go, here's a quick post as I've just found out there's a DT call at fortnigtly Fussy and Fancy Challenge - whoo hooo.

Anyone can enter the DT call, all you have to do to apply is post a message on your blog about the DT call and share 3 of your favourite projects in the post.  You can create 3 items specifically for the DT call if you prefer, so go on - try out, what have you got to lose?

I struggle to find my best creations as, like most people, I'm my own worst critic!!  I'm not sure what you'd call my style, -  I prefer clean lines, I'm not keen on using flowers - quite unusual for a cardmaker lol, I like images to pop with strong colours and sometimes use decoupage to aid this.  I like trying new things (or faffing as Pete calls it) and currently I'm just starting with a MAJOR addiction to spellbinders and diecuts. 
So I've opted for three favourite makes which I think show some variety.
My first card I love for the colouring and design -it's girly but without the flowers!  I doubled up and layered the images....

The card was created with a matching Christmas Tree decoration using touch a imagination and a fair bit of 'faffing'.......




Fussy and Fancy is not purely for cardmaking so I've included one of my favourite scrapbook layouts......


Thankyou for taking the time to look, I hope you like what you see.
