Angelic Giving

Hello Nomad friends

I've made a few tags this afternoon using scraps and dies

 

I used thin corrugated cardboard from the inside of the cat food box cut with a sizzix tag die and the sizzix angel was cut from a box that came bearing beer!!!   It was looking all environmentally friendly but couldn't resist adding a blue glitter layer cut with a studio light die.  A little stamped God Jul and a bit of twine and good to go.

So good I decided to make it a trio.

Three Little Pigz

Hello Nomad friends.  I'm back!!!!   Did you miss me??   I had a lovely break in the UK with my family.  The journey home was a challenge, but I made it, 20 hours late, and I am so glad to be back.  Today I played with a new fold and this set of cute xmas pigs from Hero Arts that fell in to my bag and followed me home.

 

I used Hero Arts Sending Warm Hogs stamps for the pigs, which were stamped on a scrap of pink card, coloured and fussy cut.  The snowflakes and the sentiment are from the same set.

 

I used a scrap of ex-packaging for my kraft panel and a few snippets of pink for a broken layer behind it.  The two sentiments were stamped on offcuts from the sheet I used for the card base.

Three Wise Gnomes

Hello Nomad friends.  I am over at the Lost Coast Portal to Creativity today with some simple inspiration for the Festive Fun Challenge, anything stamped with a Christmas theme.  It's a busy time of year so I think it's nice to be able to stamp a quick make.

I stamped Lost Coast Designs 3 Gnomes on a white card base and coloured with water colour pencils.  I stamped Lost Coast Designs Reindeer Gnome on white card, coloured him and fussy cut.  I stuck him over the middle gnome and stamped the Happy Christmas sentiment.  I used a fancy sizzix die to cut the base card for some added some interest.  

 

 

You have all month to join the fun and share your stamped anythings with a Christmas theme.  Real rubber or clear stamping and the theme must be the focus of your project. The team are sharing awesome inspiration all month so do hop over to see all their amazing projects.

Angels are Near

Hello Nomad friends.  Happy Monday.  I have made an ATC using scraps from my weekend makes and some clip out images. 
 

Isn't she adorable!  The atc and background scraps are from Scrap and Me Somewhere Else papers and the angel and fancy star are cut from the Christmas 10 image sheet.

Aloha

Hello Nomad friends.  I appear to have missed the start of a new month LOL.  Yesterday I had my traditional autumn thanks giving party.  I started this the first year I was in Norway when I realised how thankful I was for being here in this beautiful place, for food grown in the garden, for family and friends.  So I invite everyone and make a big pot of food, my Norwegian sisters and mother make amazing cakes, for which I am very thankful yum yum, and a fun time is had by all.  

But now...it's the second of the month and time for the Card Chain Challenge Reveal.  My card this month went to Joanne in Connecticut.

I went with the sketch and the options of  trees and friendship.

I used some yellow scraps for the 'island' and text panel.  The trees are sizzix dies also cut from green and brown scraps.  I stamped, coloured and fussy cut the Papernest Doll stamp.  Isn't she cute, and that weird coloured rooster.

I received a wonderful card from Gail in Canada 🥰 Thanks Gail 

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

The Sound of Silence

Hello Nomad friends.  Does space make you uneasy??  This card looks fab to me in the real but I am not sure my staging is doing it justice.  Fat Cat wasn't sure what message he wanted to share today so I just left him sans sentiment.  

I used a scrap of Scrap and Me Something Else stripy paper for the edge and stamped Lost Coast Designs Fat Cat on another scrap from the same paper set.  I added a little distress marker and gel pen colour and fussy cut the cat.  He's thinking about it isn't he!   It will be snarky, I can see it in his eyes bwahaahahhahaahaaaaa.
