Here is my offering for this challenge which is hosted by Jocelyn:
I used a stitch pattern by Linzoos (Z61). The central "teacup" digital image was purchased from Jolly Clip Art on Etsy and the tiny 'flowers' are a Nail Art purchase from Aliexpress. I also managed to find some toning blue peel-offs to add some finishing touches.
I have noticed that a good variety of peel-offs seem hard to find these days. Perhaps we don't all use as many now as we used to use. That sentence sounds a bit convoluted but I know what I was trying to say. I do enjoy using the new to me Nail Art though.
I have now finished all the planned birthday cards to the end of the year and have started on my Christmas cards.
This year I am making the stitched "12 Days of Christmas" cards. I have made the set a few times now but I do love making them. I have finished the toppers but not started on the complete cards yet as I am waiting for some ordered backing paper to arrive. Here below is a sneeky peek at the completed topper for the "Four Calling Birds". This one has always been my favourite. I have made the name sentiments ready to go on the cards so it shouldn't take long to make them up once I get started.
I hope all are well and I look forward to visiting many blogs.
Hugs

An inviting cuppa Carol, the stitched circle frames it perfectly. A great 4 calling birds stitched card. I've bought the 12 days of Christmas images from DreamCafeArt for less than £1 for 57 PNG's and plan on making a card every month next year,
