Christmas is coming




Saw a card in my local craft shop with an acetate front and when I spotted some acetate with snow on had to have a go this is what I came up with. On the inside I used some lattice punched green glitter card on either side/Added a fizzy moon decoupage of a teddy in the window put a white doiley behind this then a robin circular christmas sentiment and a few snowflakes punched out in the glitter. all I added onto the acetate was a merry christmas circle .I think it works well do you?

A new window die ...









Saw Nikky had used a window die cut on one of her cards and found this lovely one on Cutting edge crafts so had to have a play The first is a Thank you card for a fellow crafter and used pearlised card and added some shiney pattenered card behind with flowers and buttons to finish. So I then thought it would come in handy for Christmas cards the so I cut the window die out in shiney red card this time the first I embossed with snowflakes and layered with blue card and added a decoupaged topper.. I used the Ms woodland branch punch down the side The second I layered onto shiney red card and added a topper on the sill and used the MS lattice punch down the side. Im pleased with the result what do you think?

These two sisters share the same birthday so heres the cards I made Stacey is the youngest so First I embossed with the dandelion folder then I used glittered letters for her name and a lounge girl from clip art fairy she is meant to be red but I guess my coloured ink is on the way out but thought I would still use her added some glitter just added a heart with pearls I found in The Works and a round sentiment...

The second one is embossed with patchwork folder and added a flower topper which I decoupaged a butterfly and swirl from sizzix and a punched flower I made. I also used the MS vintage doiley punch along the side and added pearls
