Merry Christmas

Hello friends!

I´m back with you today with a new Christmas card I created without any designer paper,  just used distress inks and some stamps.

I really enjoyed making this card and I like the scene ... the embossed star and the sparkling reindeer. This is not the usual Christmas colors, but nevertheless, here is a lovely Christmas spirit. 

I´ve used some dies...Tim Holtz Alterations Mini Cabinet Card and Holiday Joy set, Spellbinders Shapeabilities D-Lites Window Three, Memory Box Traditional Stars and Pine Needle Border, sentiment die from Mandys.

The star is covered with Aged Gold embossing pouder from Stampendous and the reindeer got Shabby White together with some Silver Mix.

That´s it for today. Thanks so much for stopping by!

Hugs, Birgit

A Jar Full Of Candy

Hello friends!

Thanks so much for stopping by today. And what is this that I show then? Well, it´s a jar full of candy that I´m going to give to a special person this weekend.

Here where I live you can buy candy and pick up what you want to have in bags or candy jars. I wanted my jar would get a more personal look and it felt right with an autumn theme ... so here it is.

First I painted it with Gesso and a thin layer gold Acrylic paint.

I made the bow from some scrap paper, then I went loose with a bunch of flowers on top.

The firs was cut out with Memory Box frosted Christmas Trio die. 

 The leaves was made by first cuting them out from Distress inked papers with a couple of different dies. Then crumple them a little bit and give them a thick layer of clear embossing pouder and heat in.

I love the leaves:) I finished of with a piece of washi tape at the bottom and some red pearls to resemble red berries (cranberries maybe).

That´s it for today. Have a great weekend!

Hugs, Birgit

One More Newsprint

Hi everyone!

Thanks for dropping in. I´m just sharing another card that I made with trees as the one on the card I showed the other day, I simply made a few more because I thought they were so nice.

I like how the newsprint shows through the glitter and paint. If you want a materials list you need to look at my last post.

Thank you for stopping by!

Have a great day!

Sparkling Christmas Tree

Hi there!

A new week and it's already Tuesday today. And what a Tuesday then, it is unseasonably warm out here with me, so here the last days of October it is usually not 15 ° C degrees and sunshine. It's amazing good!:)

And what will I show you then ... a Christmas card of course:) I was inspired to use a bit of newsprint to this card, it is also newsprint as the lowest layer of the Christmas tree.

The newsprint may not appear so good because I covered it with distress inks, glossy accents and a layer of glitter ... it's Christmas and then it should sparkle. Sorry, I see now that there is a glue thread left on the photo.

That was what I had to show today, thanks for visiting!

Hugs, Birgit

A Christmas Greeting

Well hey there!

It is Friday already and I hope you look forward to the weekend, maybe is there little time for crafting:)

Today´s card uses a traditional Christmas color palette and the sweet Mimosa Flower Basket image from Bildmålarna.

I colored her with watercolors and then cut her out. I added some Stickles and Glossy Accents and placed her over a Nestabilities Beaded Ovals die cut.

The background designer papers was perfect for this card and is from Graphic 45. The flowers were made with the Small Blooming Poinsettia die from Memory Box.

I added a stamped Penny Black border round the sentiment from You Do before I cut it out. A resin swirl, a metal corner and some ribbons finish off the card.

Thanks so much for stopping by today and have a fabulous weekend!

Hugs, Birgit
