With all this frantic purchasing of heritage stuff from around the world - yes heck knows what the customs charges are going to be like and if I will see any of this stuff before Christmas - I would finally end up reconnecting with The Stash!
Hurrah!
I decided that I fancied trying out my sorta recent purchase of Bazzill bling cardstock and Stickles The Sequel.
And lo and behold I found the perfect target for my creative plans.
Daring Cardmakers weekly challenge
This week it's to create a card which uses a different language - so the perfect excuse to start on the Christmas cards destined for Poland. Alas limited on fonts that use the accents, but not to fear - dear Teen font comes to the rescue! Also can't make lumpy cards to send to the relatives over there as they often get opened and go astray if they look/feel anything out of the ordinary, even if they turn out to not contain money!
Anyway, here's the creation using KI colours - naturally - Banana Frog Retro Snowflake and Simple Greetings stamps.
And I really now must go and finish my book and go to sleep - I was such a wreak today it was unreal. :os
I love your card. It's the first one we've had posted that's used Polish.
Thanks so much for joining in on our dare.

Hi there
Thank you for being a Daring Cardmaker!
Love the card, love the colours especially the stripey one with the pink, blue and lilac - is that babana frog too? I need some of that - it matches my favourite socks!
It's been a real challenge even in the UK making nice Christmas cards without the bumps - I'm blowed if I'm paying for those new stamps for all the cards we send!
Maybe we should have a "flat card" challenge!
