Hello Everyone,

Today's post is another set of 10 Christmas Cards, still carrying on the theme of flat & keeping them simle, also still trialing out a few things.

I have used square cards with envelopes, Centura Pearl Fresh White Card Stock, Gemini, Sara Davies Festive Wonder Festive Frame Embossing Folder, Chloe's Creative Rubber Stamp O Holy Night, Wow Embossing Pad Clear Ultra Slow Drying Ink Pad, Chloe's Creative Art Glitter Glue, Wow Embossing Powder Polished Silver Super Fine, Chloe's Creative Sparkelicious Crystal Glitter, Spectrum Noir Winter Rose, Plum Pudding, Silent Night Ink Pads, Chloe's Creative Gems & various other tools.

I had fun with these ones too, they certainly tested me with the glue & crystal glitter, ended up with more on me than on the card lol well that is all for now folks, see you again soon.

O Holy Night Milky Way Christmas Cards

 




Hello Everyone,

Today I have a batch of 10 Christmas Cards that I was working on last week, this style is something a little different for me & was trialing a couple of items, the aim was also to keep them fairly flat & simple.

I have used rectangle cards with envelopes, Centura Pearl Fresh White Card Stock, Chloe's Creative Rubber Stamps Milky Way & Cosmic, Wow Embossing Pad Clear Ultra Slow Drying Ink Pad, Wow Embossing Powder Polished Silver Super Fine, Chloe's Creative Sparkelicious Glitter, Chloe's Creative Art Glitter Adhesive, Collall All Purpose Glue, Chloe's Creative Gems, Spectrum Noir Winter Rose, Plum Pudding, Silent Night Ink Pads & various other tools.

This was fun, but I didn't find it easy and I think there was more sparkly glitter on me than on the cards lol see you all later folks.....
