Hangin' Out At The North Pole!

My Taylored Expressions stamp set arrived this week just in time for me needing a 'W' for the Christmas ABC Challenge (washing line!) over on Docrafts. 

I've coloured the images with Promarkers and did the background with Memento Ink (using a brush to dab on)

Looking at the photo now I think I will need to 'touch up' Santa's belt - hasn't stamped as solid as I would've liked.

Black, Red and Gold Christmas Card

This is another card for the Christmas ABC Challenge over at Docrafts - this one is 'V'. I have used velvet card to mount the greeting on to. The greeting is a Dreamweaver Stencil which I dabbed glue through then gilding flakes.

Other than that, I used a Martha Stewart double loops punch and some black corrugated cardstock.

Daily Christmas Challenge - 'S' for Snow

Another card for Ginny's ABC Challenge over on Docrafts - this one is 'S' for Snow.

It's made with some of my purchases from SECC show at the weekend - a Memory Box Snowflake border die and a Woodware stamp.

The border has been cut using silver mirror card (hard to photograph) and the image coloured with Promarkers (and a bit of glitter glue).

The greeting is from Craftwork Cards.

Daily Christmas Challenge - 'H' for Holly / Less is More Challenge week 38

Another card for Ginny's Docrafts challenge - the letter is now 'H'.

I decided on 'Holly' and this is the result - inspired by this month's Papercraft Magazine.

I'm also entering it in the 'Less is More' challenge which is for Polka Dots.

The holly and greeting stamps are from Anna Griffin.

Another Christmas Challenge Card.........this time G is for..........

Again, this card is for the Docrafts ABC challenge - today it is the letter 'G'.

I have gone for 'Gilding or Glitter'

I used a Cuttlebug snowman die and cut out some double-sided adhesive. Gilding flakes were applied to the body and black glitter to the hat.

Stamped greeting from Inkadinkadoo (??)

Another Christmas Challenge Card.........

This is another card made for the Christmas ABC Challenge over on Docrafts - today is the letter 'E'. I have gone for 'envelope'!!!! Not a very Christmassy word but it was either that or embossing!

It is made with Bo Bunny's Tis the Season papers - the background is one of their cut-outs!

I made the little envelope and popped a mini-card in it with some trees cut out of the same range of papers and a rub-on greeting.

Off to get ahead with the challenge now - struggling with ideas for K!!!!

Christmas Challenge Card

Hello everyone!

I made this card after being inspired by 'Papercrafts' magazine. Over on Docrafts we're having a Christmas ABC challenge and this is my day 2 card - 'B' for belt.

It's very simple - just some red paper, white glitter card, textured black card and gold mirror card. The white glitter card has ben trimmed with some fancy scissors.

Might end up doing a few of these to send this year.
