Christmas Wreath Green

Not much to say here except I ran out of red bases so decided to try the green and I really like it. This was one of the first designs I made this year and I might make more ready for next year as it was so effective.

Christmas Wreath

I used the larger limetree cards again this time the red ones and made a few of this design, I am trying to only make smaller batches this year as I need to use some of the hundreds of christmas stamps and dies I own. Lets see if that is still the case at the end of december lol.

I used the hero arts wreath stencil, I was originally going to over stamp with the stamp set but decided it worked exactly as it is.

 

Christmas Tree

 This card design used all stuff I could find after moving from my tiny craftroom to my new space and I am still trying to find my way around having twice as much space and wondering how I ever fitted into the previous room lol.

The die and papers were from Die Cutting essentials magazine and the card bases from limetree, they came together really quickly and I liked the larger size too.

Christmas Bow

My first Christmas card of 2024 and made in July.... I really wanted to make more but I ran out of steam and mojo lol. 

This was such a simple design and quick too so hopefully I will have made a few more by now.

I can scarcely believe its december already, it was june yesterday or so it feels anyway, I am hoping that all of my cards are almost made and I can enjoy december without rushing around...who am i kidding lol

Crafty Friends

I know this seems an odd December 1st post but I wanted to wait until all of the cards had been received before posting to my blog. I had so much fun making these cards and even discovered I could make my own enamel dots with a circle background die and ink to paper oxides, if I add glossy accents then they become shiny enamel dots but I like the matte look myself.

I am hoping to be back everyday in december with my christmas card makes but as I am writing this post in May that might change lol.

Big Birthday Number 18

 You might notice that this card is very similar to the one I made for big birthday 12, and you would be correct, I reversed the colours and made the image look like the young lady but as they both like the same colours and things I didn’t reinvent the wheel lol.

Big Birthday Number 17

We are almost at the end of 2024 and the end of this years big birthdays, I definitely think the eclipse was my most used technique but I did try different images/ colour combos. This card is very elegant and although it is a style I’ve made a lot using a new colour makes it look and feel different at least to me.
