Christmas Block card1

Hi Everybody,
sorry it's been a while since I posted here on TinkerCards.
With the Summer Holidays over, it is time to start thinking about some Christmas crafting hence I am starting a little series on quick cards which can easily be made in a larger batch. These cards will still be full of little details starting with this beauty today:
 As always there is an easy craft-along video to take you through the process of making this card. If you want to craft along, please get the following ready:

Materials
- white base card measuring 10.5 x 14.5 cm when folded
- piece of white card 14.5 x 8 cm and a strip of brown card 14.5 cm long
- post it notes for masking cut to 5.5 x 5.5 cm and two fuzzy cut bell shapes
- VIGNETTE Christmas Block stamp set by STAMPlorations
- pink, green and brown ink (I used pretty in pink, certainly celery and early espresso by Stampin'Up!)
- brown marker pen (used early espresso Stamp'n'Write Marker by Stampin'Up!)
- glossy accents or crystal effects
- sequin, glue/double sided tape and foam pads/tape

Tools
- self healing craft mat, craft knife and steel ruler
- acrylic blocks
- general craft ruler

Here is the video:
Here is another card I made using the same process but with a slight change in colours ...
Hope you feel inspired to get your Christmas crafting underway.
Enjoy and Happy Crafting!!! :-)
