I do hope that you will enjoy this different style of Blog Hop.

And here is my Card for this second day of Christmas.

I have used this sweet pair of birds from Meljens and you will find it here, for my card and I have actually used the "12 Days of Christmas" as my theme for my card. I printed it onto white card and used my copic pens to colour it then used the Nestabilitie Die No.8 to cut it out, afterwards I drew around the die to create the mount. The Sentiment was one I created on my computer and printed it onto white card and mounted it in the same way as the image.

The base card is a 6"x 6" white card and the papers I have used are from Peerless Designs "12 Days of Chrismas" CD, and I have used for my first mount a song designed paper, and on top I have used three more papers in layers and punched down the edges with a bird border punch from Martha Stewart.

I then positioned my mounted image in the middle with the sentiment at the bottom on the right, to finish of I have used a branch and bird dies from Obsession Impressions and arranged them in the bottom left hand corner.

Now that youve seen my card I hope that you will return to the Cards for Men Challenge Blogspot and see who your next stop is on this "12 Days of Christmas" and you will also see who won yesterday post, and if you return back there yet again tomorrow you will see who won this fabulous prize from Meljens.
Your next stop tomorrow is to Michelle, and do I hope you enjoy making this journey with us.
