Very Merry Christmas

 I usually like to try and complete cards due at the end of the month at least a week before the end of the month even if I don't get them blogged until a few days before.  This month it is going to be a rush as I still have some to create.  

I would like to enter:

Holly & Ivy Challenge - Anything Christmas Goes
http://thehollyandivychristmaschallenge.blogspot.com/2021/05/challenge-95-anything-christmas-goes.html

I have used a digital paper from Gecko Galz.  The image is the May Christmas image from Gecko Galz and the sentiment is from Samantha.  I semi fussy-cut the image and added some glitter pen to give the colours a bit more depth.  I also added some sparkle stars.

Happy Holidays

I am a bit last minute with this post.  I had internet issues while I was travelling and was fairly exhausted when we arrived here last night.  Today is going to be a catch-up day mixed with some relaxing time.

I would like to enter:

The Outlawz Monday Challenge - Red, Green and Silver
http://outlawzchallenges.ning.com/group/monday-greetings/forum/topics/monday-greetings-07-to-20-december-use-red-green-and-silver

I have used a die-set from Memory Box to diecut the tags. I added a paper to the lower tag.  The image is from Paper Next Dolls and the sentiment is from Samantha.  Colouring is with copic markers.  I added some glitter gems and some bakers' twine.

Christmas Giving

A stamped image rather than a digital image for a change!

Robyn's Fetish Challenge - Faux Stitching
http://robynsfetishchallengeblog.blogspot.co.uk/2014/10/challenge-235-stitching-real-or-faux.html

I have used a present themed paper from Kaisercraft.  The image is an acrylic stamp from Flonzcraft.  I coloured with copic markers.  I added some faux stitching using a Distress Marker.  The embellishment has been cut from the same cardstock as the matting using a Mariannes die and then embellished with some pearls.  The sentiment is from the challenge at ABC Christmas challenge (Link above)
