Merry Christmas

Hi Friends!

Just a quick post today sharing my DT piece for the Inspiration Post over on the STAMPlorations blog ...

Still busy swapping the house around ... mind you ... packing up and moving would have been less hassle. Anyway, it should all be sorted by Christmas. Our new bed is being delivered today, Tuesday, after that I should be finally able to get things straight again. Phew!

Today's card is a classing quick layout using a bit of die-cutting and a punched star from my stash. What's adding interest is that the silver card has a bit of green shimmering glitter in it which sparkles nicely when it hits the light.

Here are the STAMPlorations products I used in today's card:

Stitched Winter Landscape Die, Merry Christmas Phrase Die

Hi Friends!

It's Tuesday which means it's Inspiration Time over at STAMPlorations. Here is my DT project ...

I created a little scene using the Stitched Winter Landscape and one of the Stitched Snow Hills dies. I used Snowflake embossing powder to add some glittery highlights. In hindsight glitter glue might have been better, The embossing powder looks a little bit creamy against the white card.

A Dino Christmas

 Hi Crafty Friends!

It's Tuesday which means it's Inspiration Time over at STAMPlorations. Today's project is a little off the wall inspired by a request for a little boy's Christmas card I was asked to make. Here it is, my DT project ...

Dinosaurs surely celebrate Christmas too and this little fellow is on his way home in time for Christmas dinner. You can almost hear him whistling and see him skipping with anticipation.

The background is die-cut with a touch of added glitter using the Stitched Winter Landscape and Stitched Snow Hills dies. The sentiment has been made up with a little help from the retired Holiday Artsy set.

TMR 27th November - Ugly Sweaters

Hello Crafty Friends!

It is Wednesday and time for a new challenger over at The Male Room challenge blog where the bi-weekly challenge is all about making projects for the men in our lives. Our guest designer for the next fortnight is Vicky, you can check out her fabulous creations on here on Vicky's blog.

My DT project for the new challenge is ...

Each challenge, of course, has a different theme. As you can see, the theme for challenge #125 is Inspired By Ugly Sweaters. Lots of scope there!

#125 Inspired By Ugly Sweaters

I opted to include some knitwear in my card and found some lovely free printables from a magazine online. They were paired with some snowflake paper from my stash and die-cut wintery hills. The frame was an old-fashioned ruler and craft knife job.

Fancy creating something for a male person in your life, pop over to The Male Room for more inspiration and to link up your masculine makes.

That's it from me for today
Have a lovely day!
