Pine Bough ...

 

  

  

Some special Christmas makes once again, this time using the gorgeous Pine Bough from The Greetery now exclusively available at Seven Hill Crafts.  I have been waiting for the brand to come to the UK so needless to say plenty of goodies went in my basket ha ha.

So navy card blank, navy card mat with Frantage (pink & gold to match the mirror card), mirror card, cream/navy sentiments foil quilled on my Silhouette.  Cut pine branches/needles & cones and lightly coloured with distress ink.  Sprinkled a little more Frantage before assembly.  

These special cards are a little bigger than 7x5 so they have boxes to match.

Love came down at Christmas time ...

This years very special makes complete, over 35 cut elements per card, along with colouring and assembly.  Taken a wee while but I am really pleased with the results.  

I must first and foremost thank Wanda as a designer for The Greetery for the idea of the little heart, it is a great little touch and I just had to add to my special creations, so thank you Wanda.

So backing paper is from Nitwit Collections, The Greetery Hourglass dies & coodinating elements.  Pine Bough and sentiment banner also from The Greetery, they really have thought of everything for this one.  Main hourglass elements & pine bough all cut in white card and coloured with Promarkers, gold card, embossing enamel & a couple of gems to finish.

Merry Christmas crafters, Jane 

 

Stunning Snowflake ...

 

Today I would like to share a couple of my special Christmas cards for 2021, so family members.  Super elegant I think and really pleased with how they turned out.  So navy card mat, navy mat slightly smaller with the silhouette of the Sizzix TH Stunning snowflake cut out.  I have used a sprinkling of Shabby Blue Frantage to create the background. Cut one large white snowflake, two small, one white again and the other gold glitter card.  Stuck back in the large white snowflake, mounted with 3d foam tape.  Foam tape for the gold and pva to put the white on top.  Foil quilled the sentiment and cut out with the Arch Banner die.  

I would like to enter this into the following challenge -
