Christmas card club challenge #25 Asha's choice.......Silver Bells

no laughing girls this is my attempt at doing a clean and simple card!

well it started off that way I stamped and embossed the creative expression stamp....but then I thought it was too flat so I did it again and decoupaged up on of the bells and bows and I am afraid that just like topsy it went on and on....matting and layering with soft silver card and the white card embossed with the crafters companion embossalicious 8x8 bows folder.....the sentiment is tonic and I have shadowed it with silver.....
looking forward to seeing all your lovely cards later this evening ladies......

More NEC stash........

I am determined to use my new stash and not just pop it in my room for later.....

so this is the memory box Deer trio.......the other die the merry christmas die...I bought earlier in the year and I must say has become one of my favorites......just a few cosmic shimmer PVA sparkle dots on the ribbon...the embossing folder is crafters companion embossalicious...snowflakes...a really useful folder.....
Hope you are having fun crafting!

doing a bit of stamping and embossing....

this is based on a design I saw on pinterest...I didn't have the same stamps so I used what I had.....a creative expressions tree.....and a justrite sentiment

a bit of red ribbon some clear gems and a dazzler.....shame all the glitter doesn't show up ....its really sparkly......
Hope you are having a happy crafty day!

Nec stash

I had a lovely time at the NEC with my pals Vicky and Kerry...and I was very good......only bought a few things and watched lots of demo's....

I did look for any of the girls from the christmas card club but there were so many people.....and no one recognised me either.....

spellbinders Victorian collection

I dont know if any of you managed to get these on the monster deals show on create and craft but they were only £7.19p....yes down from £19.99.....and free postage as well.....I bought all the medallion dies.....

this is medallions 3 which I used the outer die to make an easel card in dark brown and the inner die is cut from ivory centura pearl....a LOTV topper from one of their art pads....the sentiment is LOTV...and the flowers are wild orchid.....
