Fantastic Flower

Hello Nomad friends.  The second of the month and time for the December Card Chain Challenge Reveal.  We simplified the options for the busiest time of the year so it was used a NBUS, three favourite colours and an animal OR a flower OR a fruit.  Here's the card I sent to Alice in Finland. 

My NBUS is this fantastic flower die from Spellbinders, my colours were blue, black and white and it's a flower.  I've got a Gummiapan postage die cut black layer on my black card base and I used white glitter card for the stars and leaves.   The stars were cut from the same glitter card using a sizzix die and the second layer of the flower was coloured with brushos.  

 If you would like to see all the cards that were sent this month hop over and check out the REVEAL 

If you would like to join the fun the November SIGN UP is open until the 6th 

Thanks for dropping by.  Hugz

Happy New Year

Hello Nomad friends.   Happy New Year.  I hope you have had a wonderful festive season and are ready for another year of crafty awesomeness.  It's gonna be great!!!    Mr Mojo finally showed up for the party when I was putting a few finishing touches to some last minute embellishments.   I am particularly taken with these little napkin rings I made and feel they could also be good wine glass markers with just a few design tweeks........

I used some scraps from Alchemy of Art offcuts for the serviette rings and cut the stars from a glitter foam sheet.  The little gnomes are Craft o'Clock printed dingsens.  Aren't they cute!!!!


 Luckily there were six of these scraps

So I made 6, cos we were 6 last night.   Adorbs!!!

Someone Ate All The Chocolate

Hello Nomad friends.  I have made a cute little chocolate gift holder following directions from Hobbykunst Day 3.  Unfortunately you will just have to imagine the chocolate cos I am totally out of twix, which me feels may have fitted two to a side, and someone has run off with all the kwik lunsj!!!   Possibly those two little singing santa's who were at the door earlier today!!!!!

Still with the Lexi Design Christmas Loft patterned papers and also used Poppystamps Grand Whittle Reindeer and Brilliant Star Oval dies.  


It's the same front and back, and I really must remedy the sad chocolate situation tomorrow!!!

A Tag Within A Tag

Hello Nomad friends.  Here's a pocket tag, with a tag in the pocket!

I used Lexi Design Christmas Loft for my tag pocket and cut Poppystamps Snowflake Corner Frame from white card.   I stamped the Papirdesigns christmas sentiment on a scrap of the xmas loft card and tucked it behind the edge of the snowflake.  

Inside the pocket is another tag urging the recipient to check vipps, an instant pay app in Norway.  I used a handle brad on the corner of my tag so it can be easily retrieved from the pocket.

Shake That Star

Hello Nomad friends.   Ooh, it's shaker time!!!
 
 
I've gone slimline and used Lexi Designs Christmas Loft papers for my patterned layer.  I used the merry christmas star die from Papirdesigns to cut the aperture and then used acetate and craft foam to build my shaker.  I added the some sequins and cut the same star from gold mirror card to finish.
