christmas card - quick and easy
Monday-24-November-2008
A simple card.
I used Basic Grey 6x6 stiff paper form a mat pad. Using snowflake vellum stickers I dotted them around a decoupaged snowman sticker and saying.
Speaking of Snowdays - we are having these at the moment with a light covering in Kent on Sunday and hail today.
I love these colours because they are cold yet warm and vintage... yeah for Christmas.

Origami card 2
Monday-24-November-2008
This is the same design as before with the origami
card shape.
I used some Basic Grey card stock with balloons as a background and added Green Distress Ink from Tim Holtz to make it look shabby. A simple mat, layer and gold peel-off edges finished the card (using my favourite K&Co butterfly).

christmas card 5 - pergamano
Sunday-23-November-2008
Material
6x6 pale blue card
6x6 Basic Grey to cover the front.
Pearles
NRN stickers for the middle pearl.
4 bronze small brads.
Parchment craft pattern and materials.
Technique.
Covered card with the 6x6 paper that I cut an oval out of (you can see the card colour behind it).
I used a designed from Parchment Craft Magazine and put half on the left and right side of a gate fold.
Attached the design with brads and added some pearls and stickers to the side of the card.
This is the first time I had used metallic gel pens and a water brush to ‘water paint’ the back of the design to show the colour through the front. I then used white work and cutting.
