I enjoy playing, and in an attempt to make making the final Christmas cards enjoyable I have been playing!!
I used glossy paper and alcohol inks to create some patterned paper and then I cut out lots of circles from my nesties. Arranged them in a a tree shap, added a gold star, some gold glamour dust and some bling ... a festive tree!!
Challenges:
Fabulous Friday - metal (copper mixative and gold glamour dust)
Cardmaking mamas - sentiment
Just add ink - Baa Humbug
2 Sisters - holiday
Totally Gorguss - sparkle
We are having Christmas dinner at my Mum's this year ... so I am responsible for the table decorations ... crackers, place mats etc. I have made this place tag using SU scraps and a couple of Waltzing Mouse stamp sets, Nordic Winter and Holiday Baubles. A bit of bling to finish ... really quick and easy!!
Challenges:
Waltzing Mouse Sketches
Less is More - bling
And some snowflakes...
These were created using Tattered Angels sonwflake screens and glimmer mists to create the background. The snowflakes are made using a Spellbinders snowflake dies and they are drenched in glimmer mists. Just some ribbon, bows and pearls to complete them.
Challenges -
Charisma Cardz - snowflakes
Craft Your days Away - buttons or bows
