One more sleep and still a mountain to do! I wonder if my grandchildren will believe that Santa was too busy to wrap their present? Nah I don’t think so lol – best get me skates on.
I have a card to share today that I made a couple of weeks back and forgot to post. It’s the Lili of the Valley Birthday Fairy image that is going to be released early January. I don’t know how they keep on coming up with one release better than then next.
I have not made an easel card for a while so a non Christmas easel card made a lovely change. I hand cut a heart from thin chipboard and coated it with Distress Crackle Paint, edged it will milled lavender distress ink and Stickles then spritzed it with glimmer mist. All that faff and you can hardly see it peeking out from behind the flowers.
Did a tag thingy for the inside, using a DooHickey die.
The papers are old old old Karen Neuberger that the lovely Kath sent me, still loving these papers sweetie. The image has been coloured with a mix of Promarkers and Copics. I am not keen on the Copic yellows but the Promarker ones are fabulous, a warm soft yellow and not garish like the Copics are at all. The flowers are Wild Orchid Crafts as is the lace, the ticket sentiment is from Whimsy Stamps and the just for you sentiment is from Simon Says Stamp. And that gorgeous double satin ribbon is from The Ribbon Girl.
That’s it from me today, hope you all have a wonderful Christmas,
hugs
Beautiful:) Merry Christmas:)
