J is for Baby Jesus

 Hello again,

I have deviated from my paper pad scrap cards today for a card featuring Baby Jesus. I stamped the image from Beccy's Place set Lamb of God in Memento London Fog ink before colouring with Derwent coloured pencils, I the re-inked the stamp and stamped directly over the top with clear embossing ink and heat embossed with clear powder... I made a mask from some scrap paper and added a Lavinia Stamp 'Christmas Words' with London Fog ink over the image. 

Here is my card: -

I is for Inchies

 Hello again,

Today I am sharing three more cards made using some of my scraps from Lilybee Designs I grabbed a pile of slightly larger scraps and used a 1" square die to cut as many as possible. I then worked out the layout and decided to make three cards all the same adding a large sentiment and a strip of glitter washi tape to one side, finishing off with some plain cardboard scraps in holly and Christmas stockings.

This set started out with 36 pages, here they are all dwindled down to two whole sheets and many many scraps, current count is 15 card fronts, most of which just need some finishing touches.
Now that these ones are finished, the cards with the holly and berries remind me of Christmas puddings with the decoration sitting on top.

candied apple and broken china distress oxide inks

Z for Zigzag

 Hello again,

Three more cards to add to my growing stash, I have fussy cut three of Beccy's Place Christmas Blooms and added them to embossed backgrounds with heat embossed sentiment strip from Darkroom Door. I managed to tear the swirly die cut twice meaning I then spread the resulting swirls out further than on the other, hand punched stars using the scraps of glitter card as I used adhesive sheets to the back. I have jumped all the way to the end of the alphabet with Z for Zigzag. I have used the zigzag embossing folder in both embossed and debossed, unintentionally... 

Here are my cards: -
