For my card I've used some lovely Prima Christmas flowers and a sparkly wired ribbon tied into a bow (I find it hard to choose my favourite embellishments, but I think that flowers are just ahead of ribbons!) - more info here on My Crafty Outlook:

Now it's over to you. As usual, you can use any materials, any techniques, as long as the end result is a Christmas card. - this week please use your favourite embellishments on your Christmas card.

I look forward to seeing what you come up with for this challenge - please add a link to your blog post (not your blog, but the actual post where your card can be found) by 22:00 UK time Friday 7 June. Please mention my blog and create a link within the post for your creation.

You can enter as many times as you wish (a good way to build up your stock of Christmas cards) and also link to any other challenges that allow you to do so, but new work only, please.

A new challenge will be set on Saturday 8 June when there will once again be three chances to win a prize, thanks to generous sponsors.
