A Cat Called Joy

Hello Nomad friends.  This ones cracking me up!!   This is exactly the look my cat gives me when she gets to the door and discovers the weather to be inclement.  

The cat is from Katzelkraft stamped and coloured with distress markers.  The background is a piece of patterned embossed paper.  Unluckily, or maybe luckily, this was the only piece I could get and it's going fast!!   Good job because it's rather cool.  I made a little identity tag by die cutting a scrap of card with a tiny circle die, colouring with gold sharpie and stamping the word Joy.  Joy and Merry Christmas are from Aall and Create stamp sets.

Take care.  Thanks for dropping by.  Hugz

Tie Dye Christmas

Hello Nomad friends.  How's it going??  All ready for the madness?  Or just ready for the madness to be over??  

I've used Visible Image stamps for this card.  The t-shirt was stamped on some mottled paper and fussy cut.  Then I covered it in glitter glue cos you need a little glitter at Christmas. I cut the stamped panel with a rectangle stitch die.

Take care.  Stay warm.  Hugz

Snowflakes are Falling

Hello Nomad friends.  A quick share with another little Christmas card. 

I used blue Bazzill with holes in smeared with white ink for my background.  The snowflake is a Gummiapan die from last years advent calendar cut from blue glitter card and I cut another circle in the middle and stamped the Gummiapan sentiment

'Dear Santa
just leave the credit card under the tree'

Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow....

Hello Nomad friends.  I am still squeezing in a few more Christmas cards. 

The snowman is available from Gummiapan.  The sentiment was in the 2021 Gummiapan stamp advent calendar.  The background is blue Bazzill that came with holes in.  I thought it would do for snow and smeared it with white ink.  The foreground is a piece of printed and embossed paper I found.  Unfortunately they only had one piece so it will be making small appearances.

Wishing You Peace

Hello Nomads friends.  I think my new word is peace.  Maybe if I use it on everything then the message may travel.  I've combined sizzix Retro Santa and Hero Arts peace Bird Word stamps with matching dies.  The background is some blue metallic mirri card embossed with Crafters Companion Sashiko embossing folder.

Truck Full Of Trees

Hello Nomad friends.  It's cold and snowy here.  Hope you are keeping safe and warm.  I treated myself to the Gummiapan Advent calendar.  I've bought this one a few times now.  It's a bit pricey, but well worth the money if you like dies and Gummiapan's style.  Today I made a card using the truck and tree that was in day 4.  

I cut the tree 4 times and the truck once from an empty food box which had nice white card inside.  I coloured the die cuts with green, red, yellow, black and silver sharpie markers.  I found a scrap of bookpaper with a ripped the edge and ran a line of glitter glue along it.  This is a mini slimline size card.

Ho Ho Ho

Hello Nomad friends.  It's the 2nd of the month so time for the Card Chain Challenge reveal.  I sent my card to Brenda in the UK and used the sketch and winter options.

I made this card while I was in the UK on my hols so it's desert island crafting, as I call it when I am away from home with limited supplies.  I rattled through a few sets of papers and found these pretty snowflake papers, some sparkly snowflake stickers and this lovely santa chippy sticker. 

Hop over and check out the REVEAL
