CHNC challenge 520

 This is my design card for my CHNC challenge 520 -  please click on the link to find out what it's all about and I hope you'll be able to join in with your Christmas designs - anything goes as long as it's Christmas with the optional theme of 'use the word Merry'.

For my design card I used papers from the lovely Bo Bunny sleigh ride collection, tearing a couple of them. I added two inchies that I made some years ago and a twinchie too.

The top inchie was stamped and embossed with silver and for the bottom one I used fusible fibres and Dovecraft stamps.

For the twinchie I used 7 gypsies baja playa paper, white wash co'redination, a cuttlebug embossing folder and a cart-use border stamp, wrapped with a piece of lace with the addition of some small gems.

Festive greetings

Another card made the other day using papers that were on my table - the green background has a flocked feel and the snowflake paper is gold foiled, as is the large sentiment panel from Kanban (a shame that the gold foiling doesn't show up in the photo). I added a couple of the lovely gold glittered snowflakes from Italian Options.

CHNC challenge 517

These are my design cards for my CHNC challenge 517 -  please click on the link to find out what it's all about and I hope you'll be able to join in with your Christmas designs - anything goes as long as it's Christmas with the optional theme of  'something beginning with the letter R'.

I used papers from The Works for the backgrounds of my card with a panel of turquoise card across the middles, with a matching piece around the edges of the card on the right. The lovely red foiled reindeer were from Kanban long ago (shame that the bright shine of the foiling doesn't show well here). Sentiments were added and glittered silver snowflakes on the card on the left and a piece of washi tape on the other card.

Happy Birthday

I made this a few days ago to send to my step-son for his birthday. I used Hunkydory for the card blank, folding an A4 piece of card so that the pattern is also on the back of the card. I added papers from Papermania Mr Mister collection and added the two decoupaged bikes - can't remember where these came from, but just right for what I wanted. I printed the sentiment and die cut with a Spellbinders die, added the cork stars.
