Together At Christmas

Hi All

Today's card is for the last challenge of the year at Cardz For Galz, and we would like to see your girly 'Christmas' cards.

I have used my new Stampin Up embossing folder to create some texture behind my decoupaged cute couple. The card was finished with a stamped sentiment. I love the fresh colours of this card, and think it makes a nice change from the traditional red and green cards.

I would like to take this opportunity to wish you all a Happy Christmas, and would love you to join in the last challenge of the year.

Thanks for stopping by, and please comeback soon.

Big Christmas hugs.

Cutie Pie

Hello Again

This card was made ready for the new challenge at Cardz For Galz, where this week we would like to see your 'Cute Christmas', girly cards.

I have used a LOTV stamp, coloured with ProMarkers and then highlighted with glitter on the fairy wings and fur trim. I have kept the layout rather simple and the colours very subtle - I hope you like it. Finally the card was finished with a rub on sentiment and a small pink bow.

I have used an old favorite stamp -I just love this Santa face. I have just tinted him with ProMarkers and added glossy accents to his glasses for the glass. He has then been matted onto traditional Christmas colour card stock. Then I could resist adding a few poinsettia for a pop of extra colour.

Vintage Poinsettia

Hello Again, I'm Back 

Todays creation is for the new challenge over at Cardz For Galz, and this week we would like to see your 'Vintage Christmas' girly cards.

I have used a very old poinsettia stamp on my card. I have silver heat embossed it onto vellum, then coloured it on the reverse. I have repeated this several times, before layering up the petals to make a more realistic looking flower, that has been finished in the centre with some bling. It has then simply been matted onto an ornate die cut to give a CAS yet vintage feel to the card.

Nutcracker Delight

Hello Everyone.

Today I am very excited to share an extra card with you, as I have been lucky enough to have been chosen to guest design for Through The Craft Room Door. The challenge is 'anything goes'.

I was lucky enough to be given the Nutcrackers set from Deedee's Digis to play with. I have printed a row of the line drawn images, then decoupaged a coloured image onto one of the blank ones. I love this effect of just a black and white card with a pop of colour.
