Old Fashioned Santa

Old Fashioned Christmas was a set I received with my starter kit, almost eighteen months ago now and sadly it doesn't seem to have appeared on my blog once. This card features the Santa image which has been embossed in gold and looks lovely. The card was finished off using Merry Moments designer paper and the eyelet border punch.

Supplies:

Stamps: Old Fashioned Christmas

Cardstock/ Paper: Real Red, Garden Green, Very Vanilla and Merry Moments dsp

Ink: Versamark

Tools: Eyelet Border punch and gold embossing powder

Back from the cold..

I've not posted for ages as I've been full of cold so haven't had a clear enough head to craft, was just starting to feel better when me son caught the cold and so I've spent the last week nursing him. Everyone's now better and it's time for some cards. This is one I've had made for a long time but have yet to post. The card base is made from lovely Kraft cardstock, the white circle you can see is actually paper from the Bella Bleu collection and the sentiment is from Sincere Salutations.

The ribbon was held in place with a big crystal rhinestone from the pretties kit, these are also now available separately, see page 85.

Well the new catalogue has been with us almost a week and I'm yet to show you anything made with the new goodies. This card has been made from one of the level three hostess sets from the new catalogue called "Garden Dreams" and it is a lovely set, well worth hosting a workshop for. The image was stamped in bashful blue ink and then chalked in the centre, which was layered up with dimensionals to give some depth. The card was finished off with some pearls from the pretties kit.
