Classic Cloche

I need to get a wriggle on with my xmas cards, I am way off target,

so here's a couple with a layout inspired by Emma Goddard of

Coastal Crafter fame......

I used an old set Classic Cloche, inspired by this challenge:

Happy Little Stampers Christmas (optional + snow globe)

I will also enter Peace on Earth Challenge, my design has branches from the photo board.

It's another good way of using all that hoarded loved paper :)

and I used the birds from the stamp set, coloured in with Blend pens

There's some lovely shiny foil details, and I fussy cut the stand.

I made another (having "experimented" with the layout.....ie chopped and changed, literally, and ending up with more paper than required!)

adding a paper banner behind, and sparkly gems instead of twine bow.

Just to prove they are slightly different, here they are together :

CAS Christmas Classic Cloche

Hi there, today I'm sharing christmas cards, and I thought I'd use a new-to-me set,

Classic Cloche , which I didn't realise is just sooooo sweet,

and I just love little things!

It's a 3-step stamp for the images, so the Stamparatus is fab for repeats once you get it lined up.

I stamped the main trees and houses in soft suede, then the background in balmy blue,

and the house walls in crumb cake.

Die cut the image with a stitched square, and simply mounted on a white card blank.

To add a little detail, I stamped some "snow" in blue and added snowflake sequins,

plus a brush of wink of stella on rooftops and snow. 

The sentiment was stamped in suede, then I offset it again in blue.

My alignment was a bit off, but I liked the effect.

I'd had in mind this challenge......

I couldn't help stamping lots of repeats, but I'll make small changes to them,

as I get bored easily!

I used darker inks, and inserted it into a sparkly stitched frame,

adding some rhinestones

Do join in the challenge HERE, or at least hop over to see all the inspiring projects.
