Day 24 - "U"

Although we know the tradition, it's not very common to hang mistletoe as a decoration here in Australia... but meeting under the mistletoe sure is handy for the November challenge!

Day 23 - "U"

Under the mistletoe is the place to be at Christmas! I've used the mistletoe image from the Tied Up With String set, layered twice for a fuller, more luxurious look. Although you can't see it from this angle, I also applied some Wink of Stella to the berries for a hint of sparkle.

Day 25 - "V"

"V" is for vintage, which to me, means muted colours and distressed edges. I used scraps of fabulous tartan paper to create my background, making sure I inked the edges of each 1" square before adhering them together. I love the quilted look it gives to the design.

Day 28 - "Y"

"Y" oh "Y" is the end of the alphabet so tricky?!
Thankfully a computer generated sentiment was all I needed to satisfy today's prompt.

Day 15 - "M"

Mistletoe is one of those iconic plants that spring to mind when I think of Christmas, but I recently realised that I've never actually seen a real piece of mistletoe... I don't even know how it actually grows. Is it a bush, a vine, a shrub?? Needless to say, I immediately googled the answer and was quite surprised by what I discovered. It's well worth having a look.

Day 23 - "U"

Okay, so I might have been a little bit generous with my interpretation of today's letter. But in my defence, "U" is a hard one! I've gone with Under the Mistletoe.
