Big and Bold Snow

 Hello again,

We have some relief from the hot weather, and the garden is glad we had some rain too!

I have another Christmas card today, using Uniko Big and Bold Snow

I stamped the background in three blue colours (one or two are a green blue),

mounted it onto navy card then onto white base card.

I love the bold sentiments…..dashing stamped in navy, mounted onto navy card.

Snow outline also navy, the inner blended with the same inks as before.

I’m entering the following:

UNIKO has a fabulous challenge, with some great giveaways.

NBUS, #76 as I’ve not used this set before, even though I’ve had it a while.

Christmas kickstart #100, “round”, hoping snowflakes fit, but I’ve also added three round gems.

Christmas cards all year round, blue

12 months of Christmas, anything goes 

Thanks for taking the time to visit, and I really appreciate your comments

Take care and see you soon

Rudolph Day for April

 Rudolph Day is here!

25th of the month means it’s time to add some cards to our Christmas stash.

So, here goes using up some more backgrounds I’ve have for a few years, from a batch make 🙄

I layered that lovely tree die over my sparkly pasted trees,

added the truck from Gummiapan, loaded up with the tree and gifts 

I used pens to make it shabby (perhaps too much 😂)

Next up that cool Santa, sat on a wall, cut from yet another pasted background 

(I did make quite a few, so it’s my challenge to use them all 😉)

Santa was cut from card, snipped and layered.

Above I coloured the gifts with pens,

below I just did the “ribbon”

A piece of embossed white for the snowflake background.

This Santa was also cut from card, but I cut his trousers short and coloured his pink legs 😃

I also used up some old tea bag folding card blanks.

You can just about see the teapot.

It’s amazing how you can use up old stuff in a different way.

The bits from the aperture were used for sentiments etc.

Happy Rudolph Day!

Let it snow

 Well it’s been very cold here in the UK, and we had a fair bit of snow which is still frozen

A quick and simple make, stamped some snowflakes in versamark,

Blended some ink over them,

Added  an inked sentiment and some glittery snowflakes and snowflake sequins
