*** Christmas at Fab'n'Funky"

Hello friends,

I couldn't resist joining the Fab team at Fab'n'Funky today because they have

a Christmas theme hosted by our lovely Buffy.  

I really need to start ramping up my stash of xmas cards.

Fab'n'Funky Challenge #495

I've used a MB Country Church frame to make this card.

Lots of shiny silver card used which made it very difficult to photograph 

but hopefully you can see a little of how this looks irl.  

Sentiment is a stamp from MFT
