Last Minute Christmas at Sweet Stampin'

Hi guys

It's time for a new challenge over at Sweet Stampin' and our theme is Last Minute Christmas.
Our sponsor is Cuddly Buddly.

I take this to mean a card you can knock up in minutes when you realise you have forgot someone.


I have used a gorgeous Inkylicious stamp


Just stamp it in any colour, I've used Olive Green, and you have a beautiful card.
I added some glittery "snowballs" and matted it on Kraft.

Creative Craft Challenge WOW Christmas

Ho Ho Ho
It's nearly Christmas and I've yet to finish my cards, or shopping for that matter!

Over at Creative Craft Challenges we want your WOW Christmas creations.

WOW cards are hard to photograph at the best of times but when you live in the land of eternal darkness (bit of an exaggeration but not by much) it's nearly impossible!
I need to learn how to change settings on the camera and manipulate the images.


I went CAS with this one, mostly 'cos I don't have any festive embossing folders!

I die cut the tree and glittered it.
Then placed it in an oval apature.
A strip of glittered double sided tape.
Craftwork cards sentiment.
