Christmas Greetings

Wishing you all a very happy and blessed Christmas  and a safe and happy New Year.

Haven't had much time for blogging this past week so much going on.

Catch you all in the New Year. Will be gearing up for Sale-a-bration and a new seasonal catalogue end of January.
Take care
Alison

Wishing You

This is a card that I made last week. Very straight foward.

Paper:Black, Gumbell Green, Cherry Cobbler, White
Ink:Cherry Cobbler, Old Olive, Crumb cake
Accessories:,Stampin write markers, oval framelits, Pretty Print embossing folder

Banner

Linda Bauwin made a JOY banner similar to this one that I have copied. You can see her one here.
I used a dauber to colour the background and using the stencils that come in the create a banner kit.I have used Season of Style dsp . Looking forward to hanging my one up now that we have our Christmas tree.

Label thinlit card

This lovely card that I have cased from Christy Fulk uses the new label thinlit.We made this card in my last two classes . So much easier to use the thinlit than to make the swing card manually.
This card is made using the Birthday Basics designer paper and the Sketched Birthday stamp set.

Wreaths

I did a class last week making these wreaths. It was so much fun. This wreath uses Season of Style dsp and several cutters including large scallop punch, blossom punch .
I have added baubles onto the wreath.
This wreath I gave away as a present for our secret santa Christmas party. A group of scrapbookers get together for a Christmas party and we have to bring a handmade gift for someone whose name was given to us weeks away.The variety of gifts was amazing .The standard was very high.

This is the first wreath that I made using Winter Frost dsp. The paper on this wreath is curled.

Washi Tape Christmas card

This was a quick and easy Christmas card to make. I saw it at our last team meeting, don't know who to give the credit too but I enjoyed using the Washi tape to make this card.
