Secret Crafter, Sketch Saturday & One Stop Craft Challenges

Well I never, another 3 in 1 card, and there I was thinking that last weeks was just a fluke...lol.
I've followed the fab sketch over on Sketch Saturday, the recipe over on Secret Crafter which is 3 buttons, 2 design papers and 1 ribbon and then finally One Stop Craft with the theme of 'Christmas in July'.

Coloured the Magnolia images with copics and sakura metallic gold and silver. I've used glamour dust on santa's furry bits of suit, which Im afraid doesn't show on the piccy. Cut out images and mounted on white shimmer card embossed in the bug with swiss dots, then inked the edges with red. Papers are Funky Fairys 'Lets Get Traditional'. Gold ribbon and flowers from stash. There are little green flower buttons in the centre of each flower. Sentiment tag is a Daisy & Dandelion stamp which came free with Creativity magazine. Added an eyelet and some red curling ribbon. Another xmas card done and ready to add to the stash. Ooops only just realised I've used two ribbons if you include the bit on the tag, sorry!!

Hope everyone had a great weekend. Thanks to those of you that left me some really useful advice regarding Explorer 8, it's now off my lappy and I'm back to no. 7, I've also downloaded Firefox, and I must say blogger seems to be working much better with that.
Thanks for looking and enjoy your day!!
