Try stamping on Tuesday (2)

There is a second sketch at Try stamping on Tuesday



With this one ,I went all white. I started with shimmer card then cut an oval shape around a picture of a Christmas Tree (with birds). I attached a tiny stamped tag with a gold star brad. A more subtle card but suitable nonetheless.

Try stamping on Tuesday

I've made several Christmas cards now. (Probably close to 100.)
I've sold 18 so continue making them.

This time I used some of my Christmas stamps. I have a small one saying Seasons Greetings which features a robin(?) or bird. At Try stamping on Tuesday they have this sketch and encourage pattern mixing.

I've slightly altered the placement as it is a small square card but here is my entry

Christmas with the cuties and Paper players.

At Christmas with the cuties they want a cute Christmas card.
I had a silver tag featuring a little angel with a bunny.

That is mounted on vellum, then pale green paper. I used 2 strips of washi tape including one featuring the sentiment.
My friend's Mum in a nursing home will like this I'm sure. Her name is June.

**********************************************************************************

At the Paper Players they have this sketch.

I put my own spin on it and made it my own. The shape is on the right instead of the left.
It suited my tree on the gold shiny card.
I also put the sentiment at the top where there was more space.
Hopefully it is still allowed!
I enjoyed making this one.

As you like it./ 2 crafty critters

My favourite range of papers is Chapter One by Kaisercraft.

I've made this card using 2 of the papers (plus trim).
I've also managed to use 3 playing cards, a sticker featuring a casino theme.

This is for As you like it.

*****************************************************

At 2 crafty critters challenge they want a critter on a card. I've used various textures behind my bright pink bird.

There's a floral paper, corrugated card, black cardstock mat then shimmer paper.

I finished it off with some pink enamel dots. 

The joy of sets

At the Joy of sets they had this grid.
As I'm making Christmas cards, I decided to choose the first vertical column.
I used glimmer cardstock then washi tape that has silver writing. I fussy cut a pointsettia with leaves from an old Christmas card and re-used it.

Crafty Cardmakers and Atlantic hearts

At Crafty Cardmakers they want sparkle.
I've used the same paper as the last card and again incorporated the words jingle bells which are printed on the card.
My centre piece is a tree bauble which is gold and white. I also added several silver stars for that sparkly look.

Next card is for Atlantic Hearts

I decided to use an overlay of vellum on this card plus some lime green ribbon and pinecone die cuts I had here. I didn't add rhinestones at the top as my sentiment box is quite large.
