I did make some Christmas cards...honest!

I was rather rubbish at taking photos this year, looks like I only managed these two. But I did lots of others ...maybe I can see if any recipients still have their card floating around and get me a photo?!

Stamp used here: SU's "Something for Christmas" and the snow flake stamp is from "Season of Joy"
Both of these use embossing powders-gold and white respectively.

Christmas card #2

Well, I ran out of black card (and was a tad bored of all that cutting and embossing!) so this card was super easy! Having the card blank makes life so much easier-ha! So all I had to do was stamp onto white card, trim, stick onto some red paper, trim, stick onto card blank, punch holes, add eyelets and tie ribbon, ta dah!

Found a brilliant craft shop in Wantage at the weekend:

The Stamp Attic

And some more colours!

Christmas Card time!

Christmas Card time!
Quite a simple idea here, but the thought of churning out more elaborate designs really put me off making any at all!
I wanted a bit of sparkle, so I bought myself a heatgun (having wanted one for a while I popped into the craft shop the other day and saw one for £15 -so grabbed one quick!) I already has some gold embossing powder (stampin Up) and the sticky ink/embossing ink, so I was set to go. That is apart from a christmassy stamp- but a friend sorted that by letting me borrow her Stamping Up "Seasons of Joy" set. The size of this stamp fits a small square card just right.
I managed 10 one go, so at least i've made a start...!
