For my first card I have used the Christmas Swalk stamps that were launch earlier last year, and sadly they were not even cut out let alone inked. I have coloured the image using promarkers, and I also coloured the corner with the same green that was used to colour the coat of the boy, as I had used a scrap of white card to cut this out. The red flowers I've had in my stash for a long time, I just edged them with some iridescent glitter, added some brads to the middles, some leaves and a couple of swirls The backing paper and sentiment were printed from the CD that went with the stamps, also unused until today.
If you, like me, rushed to get your cards ready in time for Christmas last year. Why don't you join in with the Forgotten Friday challenge, and make a couple of cards a month.
Thank you for taking the time to look.

This is a lovely card to store away for the end of the year. Now that Bah Humbug is no more I might try to include some Christmas cards in Judith's challenge too - that was a good idea of hers I thought (sort of two birds with one stone!!). I also have some SWALK stamps which have not been inked but no Christmas ones.
This is such a cute image Sue, and I'm glad that you've managed to get around to using it. I a determined to keep up with my Christmas cards this year, and the FF slot was a great opportunity to get them done. Thanks for joining in this week, Judith xx
Adorable cards Sue. Great blog xx Jan
Hi Sue, This card is adorable, love the colouring. Thanks for visiting at my blog and your very kind comment. Cheers !
What a gorgeous card Sue. I will look into FF a little more as the idea of a couple of cards a week sounds appealing. A couple a month would be better than I achieved last year.
Hugs
