CHNC challenge extra for June


Can you believe that it's June already - that means that by the end of this month we will be halfway through the year and certainly nearer to Christmas 2014 than 2013 - a scary thought. Which is why it makes sense to get on with the Christmas crafting before any panic sets in. It's good making Christmas cards when there is no pressure. If you haven't yet started, why not hop on over to CHNC challenge extra for June and join in. If you click on the link you'll see the lovely creations of the rest of the team.

This is my design card. Every month the challenges are sponsored by Bugaboo Stamps and I've used an image that they kindly supplied as well as some of their digital papers. The image I've used is winter trio which I coloured with spectrum noir pens.

Completely Christmas 14


As it's Saturday again that means it's time for Completely Christmas 14 - anything goes as long as it's Christmas - please click on the link to see the lovely designs by the rest of the team and please join in the challenge.

I used  Sparkle n Sprinke 'snow goddess', colouring digitally using Microsoft Paint (Sparkle n Sprinkle are the sponsors for Completely Christmas challenge 14). I dotted the collar and muff with quickie glue pen and sprinkled with Art Institute loose glitter.

All papers are My Mind's Eye 12 days of Christmas and the flowers and sentiment are from stash.

CHNC challenge 179: 3 of something


For my CHNC challenge 179 this week I'm asking to see 3 of something. If you haven't started your Christmas cards yet this year, it might be a good idea to think about joining in and get ahead of the 'panic season'. I'd love to see you there.

For my card I've used a Hunkydory background and some vellum and card panels that I've had for ages. The vellum is white with gold foiling, which, unfortunately, doesn't really show up in this flash photo (will try and replace with a better one taken in daylight). The flowers were from Hobbycraft.
