Christmas Card

My first Christmas card of the year:

I used Spellbinders Majestic Labels 25 for this card (I'm not obsessed with this set honest, I realised most of the cards I've made so far have been using this frame ;p).  I cut out an apperture using the frame and covered it with acetate.  I used Spellbinders 2012 Christmas dies to cut out the baubles and backed them onto a piece of black card.  I stuck them onto the acetate and used the Cosmic Shimmer 'sparkle' PVA pearls to make the strand for them.

The poinsettia was stamped from Woodware 'Poinsettia Corner' stamp set and coloured using Spectrum Noir pencils.  I added a couple of die cut swirls to around the flower.  Finished off with a sentiment and a few more of the PVA pears in the top and bottom corners of the card.

Play It Again!

This card was made using the House Mouse Gruffies 'Friends Like These' stamp set.  The background is three panels made using a Darice music score embossing folder.  I wiped Black Soot distress ink over the top of the embossing, it turned out a bit more grungy than I would of really liked but still looks ok I think.

I stamped the bear in the middle of the 'waste' piece from the frame of Spellbinders Majestic Lables 25 die set.  I've coloured him in using Spectrum Noir blending pencils.

I added two sentiments, 'Play it again' is from the same stamp set.  Finished off with some handcut and doodled bunting added onto a piece of bakers twine.

Vintage Blossoms

Just a couple of quick cards today made using the 'Vintage Blossoms' sheet from Hunkydory's 'Vintage Journey' card kit.

This one was just a piece of the background card with a border and topper along the top.
