Emma has really captured the feel of the night before Christmas in her card.  All those little stockings hanging up on the fire place.  When I designed this range of ribbon -New England Christmas here, I had this vision of Christmas's past as a child, just like Emmas card.

A perfect Santa Emma.  I think this is called a step card (not sure, so please forgive me if I am wrong). Santa is hiding a secret in his steps.

Little hearts, that is fantastic Emma, very clever.

Emmas last card is very stylish, I love the simplicity of it - super cards Emma.

Tracey and Paul have captured the simplicity and elegance of this ribbon range with a super card. Love the tree motifs - fantastic colours

I think this second card from Tracey and Paul is great fun, the way they have added the extra parcel and a little bag (of sweets I hope) to the ribbon design. With the simple tied ribbon knot and the bright gold merry christmas message, this is a wicked card.

I am still away on a little island with Tony, I pre wrote this post before leaving, hoping to catch up with you all at the weekend.

Take care
