Happy Birthday

 

using a set of dies from John Next Door...going for a more masculine look I think the kraft card and the embossing sets off the dies...

Thanks for popping by today

gnome Tree

 

the background was made using a very old stencil and white cosmic shimmer dimensional paste splatter with white acrylic paste

I cut the gnomes out several times in different colours and paper pieced them.. adding nuvo drops to give dimension to the strings of lights

took a while to make...

thanks for popping by today hope you are keeping cool its hot again here today but bearable

fun Santa

 another of my sale dies...

I used lots of things to create the background a stamp which I embossed and then used and embossing folder and some inks...

the Santa is spell binders St Nick which I have cut using Lawn Fawn wooden card stock in white and coloured using promarkers and the parcels are made from another set of dies...
