Instead of writing up three separate posts I am going to combine them in one. I am trying to get alot of Christmas cards done and dusted way before the holiday arrives. Last year I couldn be bothered but am determined this year. I also made a card for a friend as a thank you for all she does for me. I have many friends that do alot for me so this is a first of many lol.
First up is a Christmas card of a robin. I know I have posted a previous card using my polys for the first time and this one is the second attempt which I am much more happy with.
I stamped the card using heartfelt creations and coloured it again with my polys. Simple project
This has been entered into the following challenges
Next up is the card for a friend. I cant remember the stamps set I used but I just love the frame and roses. Again I used my polys and then alot of glossy accents on the roses to give them depth.
Apologise the amount of pics on the last one - trying to capture the depth of flowers.

Lastly another of my fave stamps which I have used a few times but just absolutely love it. It is the blueprint Christmas tree. I heat embossed the image and filled in the star using the gold embossing powder. This time I used pan pastels for the colouring and the sentiment has been stamped all over - the one at the top is not obscured so can be read lol.
This has been entered into the following challenges
There you go all three posted and I do hope you enjoyed your visit this time and hope to see you again real soon.
Hugz always

Hi Elaine! I love both of your cards!! The one with the roses is just stunning and the blueprint Christmas tree is so interesting to look at. I love the brightness of the tree--pops right off the card!! Thanks for joining us at Through the Craft Room Door challenge. Good luck and hope to see you next week, too!

It seems that you have linked your card to too many challenges for us at Less is More, where we allow a maximum of five challenges to be combined. It's also a little difficult to see what you have two of on your card.
ReplyDeleteThank you very much and do join us again.
