Perfect I thought so here is my recylcled effort using this gold metal church and trees. I created the "hills" from some of the card and also some glitter card!

Winter Wonderland....

Afternoon !! Well the weather and snow is slightly better but it is STILL freezing, I am so fed up having to bus to work or get a lift from someone. I wouldn't dare drive in this!!

So I have been browsing some challenges and since my Xmas craft stuff is still lying around due to the fact there is nowhere else to put it yet!! I decided to make a Xmas card EEEK!!
