Online Advent Calendar - 22nd

Welcome to day 22 of the on-line advent calendar, as organised by Jo of Serendipitous Stitching
For your advent picture I'm sharing this lino-printed poinsettia card I made


Also a picture of my "Geek-mas" tree. Extra brownie points for anyone who can identify all the fandoms. 


Jo also asked us to share our favourite Christmas song. Lots of my favourite songs have already been chosen, but I thougfht you might enjoy this - the Sans Day Carol, a traditional Cornish Christmas Carol.
Happy Christmas to you all

Thanks for taking part in the Advent Calendar Blog Hop this year. Love the poinsettia.
I can see Batman, Ghostbusters and Deadpool on the tree, not sure who is on top though!
Lovely carol for us too. I am enjoying the musical accompaniment to my blog reading this year.

Stunning card.
I showed me daughters partner your tree... he's a geek and was well impressed. He also did know what a fandom was!

Ooo I can see Batman, Deadpool, Ghostbusters, Hello Kitty (is this a freebie pattern somewhere? omg), Star Trek, Tigger, Doctor Who, and a Castiel angel! :D I feel like the "Shiny" is from something too but maybe it's just a shiny Shiny!

Katie said...

Wow what a beautiful card. I also love your geek tree. Thanks for sharing.

What a beautiful print, lovely colours.
Fun tree, I spy the TARDIS!
Such a beautiful song, I haven't heard it in a long time.

Your card looks gorgeous. I'm enjoying the ghostbusters bauble in the bottom left - a geekmas tree seems like an awesome idea! Hope you had a wonderful Christmas x

I love your geekmas tree, but I won't even try naming all of them! Great song choice too.
