Just 'cause + a Christmas card or two!

Hullo everyone in a rip-roaring hurry here so wont waffle :D
Over at Christian Cardmaker's (CCM) group on Facebook, (run by Ginny - see her blog, and email her, if you want to know more about it) has some really great digi's that just call out for you to make some cards so here are some made this week.
I just love this verse... and good to remember when I am full of negativity. Spellbinders rectangles and cuttlebug folder which you can barely see. A birthday card for a friend next week.
Remember the batik patterns? well, we had a batik week and this was one of them available to print.. lovely isn't it? a WAW digi Bible verse.
This Digi Bible verse is from WAW, too and love it ... "the LORD is my Refuge, my Fortress, in Whom I will trust" Amen! Balloons are this weeks theme @ CCM. A great male image, focal image is raised but you cant tell. Tim Holtz distressed folder all inky.
Ten days ago I shared two dozen cards (here), most were made with these card toppers for Christmas, with differing backgrounds.. thought of doing this one with Memory Box Star mask. It has all these different sized stars on it. Used gold embossing paste and mixed gold glitter with it for extra sparkle... really love it.
As wont have time again this week to post... or so I think at this stage... here is my image from Oz for this week. My bunch of Kardinal roses (yes, spelling looks wrong but that is how they are spelt). All but one of these were off one rose bush and four of the six were on the one stem, pretty amazing, eh? I love God's marvellous creation!
I will comment as able may take til next week to get there :D

Thanks so much every one for popping over for a peek as chat, may God bless your day wherever you may be!  Shaz in Oz.x

    Hello Shaz

    Beautiful card makes, and I agree with the verses they are so apt.
    Stunning Kardinal roses, the rich red
    of the roses and dark green leaves is stunning, and I bet the smell of the open roses is gorgeous.

    luv

    Oh, Shaz, it's wonderful to see all these beautiful cards you've made! Each one is lovely, and I especially love the blue and gold one you've made for the ODBD Shining the Light challenge. What beautiful shine and wonderful gold stars to match the magnificent focal image of your card (which is so powerful!). And your roses are gorgeous! Just love how God has made so much beauty for us to enjoy! Hugs, sweet friend!

    All I can say is wow, wow and wow. The cards are great. I love the gold stars one best. BUT, the batik really is so pretty. Well they all are. Your roses are stunning. They look like they came from a florist. They are lovely.
