Shake a Little Merry Christmas

GOOD DAY!!   ARE YOU READY?!  No no, not for my post FOR CHRISTMAS!  ha ha ha ha!  I am and now I'm trying to PATIENTLY wait for everyone to show up and start the holidays.  It's not working.  LOL!!  I want it to happen NOW.  ha ha ha!  ðŸ˜€

So my project today is a shaker card using one of the new templates from Dutch Doobadoo Card Art A4 Cookie Jar.  Super cute huh?!  I love this Holly Jolly Merry Christmas die from Find It Trading.  What a great centerpiece and also nice for the sentiment inside too.


I used the "Happy Holidays" Joy christmas trees, painted some Snow-Tex on to them and dashed them with the Diamond Dust glitter.  Gorgeous!  


I made my own poinsettia using white Foamiran foam, distressing the centers and popping in some stamens, each of which are available in the Noor store in numerous colors!


This image is Tilda with Rudolph and one of my favorite's from the Magnolia collection this year. I colored her up using my distress inks that I just can't seem to put down.  ha ha ha!


A view of how the shaker card shakes - LOL!!  



Thanks so much for stopping by!!!  I hope you all have an amazing holiday and get some well deserved family time and down time.  

Hugs!!!

Snowman Family

I giggled when I saw this cute little image from Wild Rose Studio suitably called "Snowman Family".  Baby snowmen?  GACK!  ADORABLE!   I added flower soft to the fur on her hat and pom pom and some white flock to the baby snowmen fur.  It's so cute in real life!  


So I'm sure you've seen the new Foamrian flowers floating around Facebook and on many of the team's projects lately.  Well, here's another one and for this one I used the Rosy Owl Flower Die 2 set.  I added some Viva Decor ice crystals for that wintery feeling.


A bigger view of the flowers with the black wax cord underneath, which are popped up onto some black straws.   There are so many amazing colors of the foam in the store and they are so much fun to make you HAVE to try it! 


I like this black Lotus flower and I think a person might even be able to use it for a masculine card.  Rosy Owl also made this gorgeous leaf die, which can be used on the foam but I didn't have the right green foam so I cut some green cardstock.


I added a ribbon slider under this gorgeous lace Eloise but then added the Button Starlight for an extra elegant piece.  Oh it's pretty!!  


So there you have a rather non-traditional Christmas card from me this week.  Enjoy the rest of you week and this coming weekend.  I'll bet you'll all be busy since it's the last weekend before xmas.  Are you ready?  Not me!!  But I will be.  LOL!! 

Hugs!

Winter Wonder

Today I'm happy to be bringing you two cards.  I'm getting ahead (or maybe just on time) so I figured I better double up my sharing for you all to see.  ðŸ˜Š  For my first card I used the papers from Whimsy Stamps "Winter Wishes" pad and paired them up with the super cute stamp also from Whimsy "Winter Wonder".  Taking her teddy bear for a walk - ahhhhh the memories of being a kid.  LOL!!


I made myself a little forest and added some snowtex on each tree, built up dimension and even sneaked a little deer charm in there too.   What's a forest without an animal of some kind?


My usual bouquet full of pretties, which I also added the Snowtex too.  Love those wooden white snowflakes!!


I thought I'd share a masculine Christmas card because I'm sure we all have at least one we should be making this season.  I used the papers from Studio Light called "Frozen Forest".


The die is Marianne Designs called "Tiny's Reindeer Die" and it's not in the shop but Tracy can bring it in for you.   I showed this angle on the card so you could see the man glitter on the large Scrapiniec holly wreath.  LOL!  Seems when I call it "man glitter" it's accepted.  ðŸ˜€  Oh and it is the Tim Holtz distress glitter so that should work too right?  LOL!


This angle shows the reindeer is actually in the center of the card and not on the outside.  I even cut the die twice and added some dimension tape behind the die.  I also added a couple of Scrapiniec snowflakes (which aren't in stock but many others are) and birch bark stars.


The trees are Joy dies "Happy Holidays" to which I added Snowtex for that even more wintery feeling.  

There you have it!!  Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a great weekend!
Hugs!
