MojoMonday 249

 

Sooooo....I've found some time to make a couple of cards...this one is for our sons birthday next month but as we are on holiday and travelling (a lot) I took this opportunity while staying with friends in Darwin to make his card. Natalie my friend and I have been stamping and making cards for 16-18 years and boy have they come a long way in that time. I based my layout on this weeks MojoMonday #249 and used Natalies embossing folder and car stamp. Thanks for taking a peek ... not sure when I'll be back

Christmas, Merry Monday

 

 Well I am so pleased with this Christmas card - loving  my new Spellbinder dies and also the effects you can get by inking your embossing folders before running them through your machine. I've based my card on ths weeks Merry Monday sketch #24. The second card background was with a second run through the machine without re-inking..a softer finish.  Thanks for taking a peek

Christmas, Winter Wonderland

  

So as per usual I'm spending my Saturday afternoon skyping with cardmarker friend Vikki...and sadly this will be my last Saturday for a few weeks as next week will be frantic last minute preparations for our 6 week holiday...we are at present packing up house to leave Karratha and by 10th of August will be living for a short time in Perth, Western Australia. Here is my card for the Winter Wonderland challenge for this week - Candy Canes...well you've go to look carefully to see my santa with his canes but I did have fun putting together this easel card and adding to my Christmas card pile of 55cards. Thanks for taking a peek
