Grand Deer Three

Hello Nomad friends.  Gosh, me again, with more tags.   This is my first time using Poppystamps Grand Whittle Deer and he is grand and far from little.

I used up some more of the infusions background I made earlier today for a northern lights feel.  I cut the deers from scraps of brown and white, used some white scraps for the snow and cut some tiny pines from scraps of green.  Some more of the pink fun wool and done.

Thanks for dropping by.  Hugz

Tag Fun

Hello Nomad friends.  Grabbed some PaperArtsy fun stamps and infusions to make a trio of Christmas joy.

I obviously favour cute and whimsical.  I made a spritzy background with the infusions and used Promarkers and sharpies to colour the images.  Tags were cut using Daisy Mae dies and a little fun wool to finish. 

How's you doing??  Crazy? Chaos? Calm and bright?

Ravishing Reds

Hello Nomad friends.   I seem to be enjoying monotones this december.  Here's a little red on red to brighten the cold season.

I've used Memory Box Hopmeadow Circle, Horse and Sleigh and Valencia Border dies.  The horse is cut from a scrap of red foam and I used other red card scraps for the rest.  The sentiment is a printed chippy from a christmas set that I have had for ages.......

A Little Bit of Moon

Hello Nomad friends.  I'm still feeling seasonally challenged, but it's my day to look cold and frosty over at the Lost Coast Portal to Creativity, so I abandoned Christmas in favour of a wintery birthday card.  The Cold and Frosty Challenge makes are looking lovely.  Don't forget to add yours to the linky for a chance to win.   I went with blues for cold and glitter for frost with this lovely Jester Square from Carmen's Veranda.

 

I used Lost Coast Designs Pondscum Background, stamped and embossed with some glittery embossing powder and smooched on some distress inks in shades of blue.  I stamped Carmen's Veranda Jester Square, embossed with silver embossing powder and coloured with sharpies.  The happy birthday is from Lost Coast Designs Party Words set.

Hope you like my cold and frosty birthday card.  You have all month to link up your stamped anythings for a chance to win, if you get some time away from all the festive crazy. 

Thanks for dropping by.  Hugz

Nostalgic Christmas

Hello Nomad friends.  Nope, I am not ready!  There, I admitted it.  But on the good side it will all be over in a couple of weeks and I can start planning for next year Hohohohhhhoh.  Thought I needed a Christmas laugh LOL.  Anyway, that said, I did allow myself to get distracted again from xmas card writing and made this cute gift box.

I used double sided patterned card for the box and some pretty vintage style papers for the main motif and tag.  

Inside a pack of serviettes and scented tea-lights.

Thanks for dropping by.  Hope your preparations are in better shape than mine, but if not, I recommend cake.  Hugz

Blast From The Past

Hello Nomad friends.  Do you UK ladies remember Craft Creations???  How long have they been gone??  Used to love their card and papers and I still have loads, including loads of decoupage sheets.  Inspired to pull out some gingers tonight and make a couple of cards.

4 layers of decoupage on this one.  I think my mother in law will get a laugh out of this guy, although she doesn't really do english.........

Used a bit of red plaid paper and this cute little framed ginger.  The sentiment is a flat beer bottle cap and says Merry Christmas in Norwegian.

Cold And Frosty Cookie Basket

Hello Nomad friends.  I really liked the little tag basket I made the other day so I decided to alter the measurements to accommodate some cookies I made.  I've used blues and snowflakes and glitter for that cold and frosty look to go with the Lost Coast Portal to Creativity Cold and Frosty Challenge.

I used Carmen's Veranda Reindeer Doll with Lost Coast Designs Small Snowflakes and ATC Doodle Circles stamps.  Here's a view of the finished basket with my pig shaped cookies on the side.  I watercoloured the deer's dress and added some other colour with distress markers and promarkers.

I hope you get some time to stamp and join us at the Cold and Frosty challenge.  Don't forget to pop over to the blog and check out more details and all the awesome inspiration from the team.
