Christmas

Hello everyone,

Sometimes our rejects can be reworked. Yay!

I actually made this card last week - with a snowflake theme. I sprayed some Distress Ink onto a memory box snowflake stencil and used a dark room door sentiment. But it lacked a focal point. 

Today I placed  a pine cone die cut on the right hand corner and gee....it works for me!
I added lashings of wink of stella- but I've failed to capture the shimmer in the photo.

I've made this card for the Festive Friday Challenge. 

Take a look.....at the challenge and start your Christmas cards early this year.

Thanks for looking!

Snowflake

I thought I may as well add another, so here is the second card I made for the Festive Friday photo inspiration challenge. 

This is an elusive images stamp and it's the first time I've used it.

 I do like snowflakes but I cannot use them on cards because we don't have snow here at Christmas! 

I've heat embossed again with a Stampendous  powder and used some distress ink for the background. 

The sentiment is from Darkroom Door and the tiny pine leaves are a PTI stamp.

I'm sorry I've left it too late to visit tonight, so I'll be around omorrow instead.

Thanks for looking!

Sparkles

Hello everyone, this is my first challenge entry for 2014...

I've been making cards but I've been busy and haven't had time to upload the cards to my blog.  

I've made the card below for the Festive Friday Challenge and here is the inspiration photo...

I've used Stampendous embossing powder which glitters and then sponged with two shades of distress ink. 

The stamp is from PTI jar fillers.

Thanks for looking.
