3 Vintage Chistmas Card Set

I came across these 3 vintage christmas images on pinterest and I just knew I wanted to turn them into a set of 3 vintage christmas cards.  As far as I can tell, they originally came from JanetK Design. Unfortunately that website is now no longer up and running, but I was able to save a decent copy of each. 

 And I found matching tags as well.

If you would like to use these images you can find them 

on my "Vintage Christmas" pinterest page.

Some close-ups...

I used stampendous frantage on all the snowflakes

The gold holly I found in a local 2nd hand shop, Bargain! 

and the poinsettia I cut on my cameo.

And it seems I have finally mastered the art of tying a bow thanks to this you tube video.

Thanks for stopping by, feel free to leave a comment and a link to your blog so I can have a sticky at you fab creations.

Oh boy do I love the wee stamps, this one is a digi that I bought here.

I have also use a prima doily die, a butterfly die, cheesecloth, beautiful Maja design paper (my fav) some chippies, flowers and the basic card shape cut on my cameo and if you look very carefully in the top left corner you can see a clear bird which I got from the wedding section in my local spotlight store.  

Thanks for visiting my blog

Easter Time "The Paper Shelter"

Here is my entry for this weeks challenge at the paper shelter,  the theme is "easter time"

Exploring

Exploring,
my entry for the sketchabilities #110 challenge and the color room #166

The Sketchabilities sketch I turned sideways

and the color room, I loved all the colors and the flowery feel it has.

Heres my entry

The "junkmail" that was part of "the color room" entry is the two hearts at the top of the photo, a heart under the bottom butterfly and the photo is also mounted onto the same piece.  It was a piece of artwork that my daughter brought home from kinder, normally I would just hold onto the for a while then throw it out,  but the colors suited perfectly and it appeared to be the cover of a journal type of book so I was able to thread some ribbon through the holes.

This flower is hand sewn.

This rose and leaf were cut on my cameo, as well as the butterfly bellow, which was very challenging as it has such fine detail.  

 The vine I made out of sculpey clay a while back and I just rubbed over some green chalk ink.

Thankyou for checking out my LO today.

It would be great if you could follow my blog if you find my work interesting.
