Welcome to The Craft's Meow's October Blog Hop. Our theme this month is CHRISTMAS. If you came from Lin Brandyberry's blog, then you're at the right spot. Please check the TCM blog for the complete list.Please note that TCM is also having a 20% off their Fall and Autumn sets. Use the code FALL20 to get your discount!

I have 2 cards for you today. First is a mixed media card that uses my Holiday Poinsettia and this month's FREE gift with purchase set, Inside Christmas. There's a lot of things going on my card and I'll show you a tutorial in a future post. It was so much fun to try many techniques on a small canvas of a card.

Here's a close up. I used watercolors, inks, embossing, paper piecing, stitching.
