Be Merry!

I have been really busy today but will not be posting the cards I have produced until they have reached their destination (hoping they will get there by Christmas!!).

Then had to pop out for a lovely tea and glass of wine obviously - it is Christmas!!

Christmas Scene

In between writing and actually posting a few cards and catching up with some stuff I have made a few more Penny Black fantasy trees and this card which is a commission for work.

The card is actually nearly 8" square.

The picture is from a Kanban set of Christmas toppers and is a really pretty scene. It doesn't show up much on the picture but I have added glamour dust to some areas for sparkle.

Then it is just layered with a message added and some punched snowflakes that also met with some glamour dust (the whole house is currently sparkling - doesn't it get everywhere?!).

Still going!

Still on rather quick cards, these are just made from the Forever Friends packs that DOCrafts issued a few weeks ago (and now are another thing you can't get for love nor money!!).

Anyway, I'm afraid these ones were just die-cut decoupage layered on paper from the packs - with a few gems to finish off. Still effective for a slightly more special card.

No Post

Too busy working, shopping and drinking mulled wine for anything crafty today I'm afraid!!
I'll try harder tomorrow!

Still Christmas

Just a couple of Reindeer today to keep my blog followers happy!!

Not too much to say about them, just some different ideas to add to the mix.

The card on the left used fun flock to make the reindeer 'strokey' and a pom pom nose and googly eye.

The other reindeer is from a papermania set (I think - many stamps now under a big pile of carnage on my desk!!). Simply cut out with an oval punch, bottom of card layered with cuttlebug snowflakes and some matching ribbon. Just about there on orders now so can try something a bit more adventurous at the weekend (famous last words!).

Christmas Sheep

Forgot I hadn't posted my Christmas Sheep!

This is another Penny Black stamp I couldn't leave on a stall recently.

Coloured him with Copics and a Sakura Glaze pen, some sparkly flock and glamour dust.

He is featured on nesties and the greeting is printed then punched out from the Stampin Up set.

I am a sucker for these cute Christmas animals!!

Must dash, still far too much to do!

Robin

Just a quick post so I don't get told off by Janet again!!
Another quicky I'm afraid. Will add the make of this stamp when I come across it.

For this card I used Anita's pens to colour the image before stamping which came out really well. Then added a few gems for berries and hey presto!

I'm taking 50 completed cards in to work tomorrow so I have been busy, honest. Still got the weekend to work on a few bits that take a little more time!
