Oh Christmas Tree!


I am making a few charity Christmas cards with some friends and this is my first offering.   We were lucky enough to have a box of freebies donated from Kanban cards and this is what we intend to use.......maybe more to follow so watch this space.

A little light!



I made this special card for a dear friend of mine who recently celebrated her 75th birthday.  The images are from Joanna Sheen's Thomas Kinkade Cd which is truly magical.  The floral areas have been sprinkled with flower soft to create a really 3D look and just a touch of glitter and of course a beautiful bow.

Cosmic Shimmers


The card was created using cosmic shimmer paints direct to the stamp the dry and stamp over again in a different colour.  This was a technique I learnt from a class with Sheena Douglas who is a very creative lady.

In the garden


This cute card was made with Sarah Kay rubber stamps, coloured with aquacolours and some pretty papers.  The flower was made with a 2" frilly circle punch which was cut into to form the petals and a button added for the centre.

Friendship


I made this card for my friends.......? birthday.  We share a love of crafting and I hope it made her happy on her birthday.  It was made with my scoreboard, rubber stamps, cuttlebug/nesties die finished off with pearly doodles and a sentiment made on the computer.

CHRISTMAS JOY

SIDE STEPPER CARD
This card was made from silver cardstock which was scored/cut to form a tri fold side stepper card.
Black and white decorative paper was added to the side panel along with a black stamp embossed word topper together with tiny Christmas trees and the words JOY were cut on the cricut machine.  Hope you like it.
