Bright Christmas Wishes

Hi Folks

I'm in Christmas mode again I'm afraid! :D  And decided to use some of this green paper up, as I seem to have more of it leftover, but it's some of my favourite from Wild Rose Studio, the stamp is of course from Penny Black and I used me Star Nesties too.

I've coloured these sweeties with Derwent Inktense Watercolours, distressed lightly around the image with 'Tumbled Glass' and used Stickles and Glamour Dust for the snow and star sparkle.

Holly Hedgie

Hello Peeps

I've been playing with me new crimbo stamps again :)  Love this cute hedgie, the gorgeous papers are from last years Papermania collection, the lace and flower dies are from Magnolia and the holly is part of a die set from Marianne Creatables.

I've coloured with Derwent Inktense Watercolours and used Stickles 'Ruby Slippers' and Glamour Dust on the berries.



Thank you for looking and all your lovely comments too :)

And back with another Christmas card! Sorry, couldn't help it! :D

I just love this cute puddy cat! And yep, he's from Penny Black! I've used an embossing folder from Cuttlebug, the fabulous around-the-page punch is from Martha Stewart, the flowers are dies from Magnolia and Sizzix and the sentiment is from LOTV.

Glittery Geraniums

Hi Peeps

I thought you all might be abit fed up with seeing crimbo cards, so I decided to ink this gorgeous, I was gonna say little stamp, but it's huuuge! :D  I really enjoyed painting this adorbale image though.

In case you hadn't guessed, it's from Penny Black! :D The flower die is part of the Tattered Florals from Sizzix, the stamen part is a little punch from Leone Em and the fab border punch is from Martha Stewart.

I've coloured with me Derwent Inktense Watercolours and used abit of Stickles 'Crystal' glitter glue.

Yes, Virginia.....

Hello Peeps

Hope everyone's having a lovely Saturday :)  I got a delivery of some more lush Penny Black Christmas stamps this morning, so had to have a play!

I love the sentiment on this one, it's so sweet and you can get it here. I've used one of me fave Martha Stewart around-the-page punches and swirly and snowflakey embossing folders. The papers I've had for donkeys years from DCWV and the snowflake and swirl dies are from Sizzix.

Angel Wishes

Hello Peeps
I'm back after a lovely couple of days in the west of the country, but I've really missed crafting and blogging! Sad, I know! :D  And another Christmas card, I've just counted how many I've made so far and was abit disappointed!

This cute little angel and sentiment are from Lili Of The Valley, the papers I got yonks ago from DCWV, I've used a Martha Stewart corner punch and the snowflake dies are from Sizzix.

I've coloured with Derwent Inktense Watercolours and used Stickles glitter glue and Glamour Dust.
