Reindeer's for Christmas..The Merry Christmas Challenge - November 2018

Hi all, well we are one month from Christmas, how did this year go so fast? 

I have created these very simple cards for The Merry Christmas Challenge. HERE

I did these kind of cards a few years back and thought I love them so much why

not create them again for one of my Christmas card sets..

I make 2 or 3 sets of Christmas cards every year to send out to family and friends..

I love this little reindeer and his knitted jumper.. I left him cream and stamped the jumper in

red Cherry Cobbler ink from Stampin Up.. I love this ink for Christmas and to be honest is the only red I will use.. 

The paper is from Kaisercraft..

The reindeer is a stamp and die set called ????

The flower is a sun burst punch and a circle punch..

The large fence like punch is from ??? and called ???  

My favourite card!!

All cards together, looks impressive right lol..

I hope I have inspired you

to create glorious things

Encaustic Screens - The Merry Christmas Challenge - October 2018

I created a few Encaustic Screen Cards for this month.. See them HERE..

I made these last year as a set and people loved them. So I thought I would show you the ones I created for this year Christmas card list.. 

Two or three set of Christmas cards is what I usually create for the Christmas season.. 

All cards have a Bazzill cardstock base. I have placed a piece of white cardstock on the 

back of the cards to write a Christmas message.. 

All card fronts are unique because you cannot recreate the exact pattern or colours..

Look closely at the images, what can you see?

These are created with an Encaustic Iron and a pigmented bees wax..

This is one of my favourite mediums as you cannot fail at this lol..

I hope I have inspired you

to create glorious things.

Pillow Boxes - The Merry Christmas Challenge - September 2018

Yep I have joined another group as a Design Team member this time its all about Christmas..
'The Merry Christmas Challenge'  HERE

Now if anyone knows me then they know I Love Christmas. and I love creating

for the season..

This time I created two pillow boxes and decorated them white and silver with a tinge of blue..

How pretty are these..

I have this pillow box die from Sizzix and thought how perfect it is for this project.

I found a sheet of empherma and cut two panels out one for each pillow box. 

I also embossed the pillow boxes to give them a little character.

A Poinsettia die, some ribbon and bling and a splash of white acrylic paint and it all done.. 

I hope I have inspired you to 

create glorious things.
