Hi everyone!
I’m playing along with Martin’s 30 Day Christmas Card Challenge this month.
The theme of Day 21’s challenge is ‘first snowflake’.
Perfect excuse for me to pull out the Birch Press Design Crochet Snowflake stamp set! This time I paired gold mirror card and whit glitter card plus fabulous sparkly bling that I have had forever!
The background is a Spellbinders embossing folder and the sentiment is by Sizzix.
Thanks for stopping by!

The theme of Day 19’s challenge is ‘wrapped in wonder’.
Lots of ideas for this one but I really wanted to use my new Nellie Snellen Presents embossing folder and stencil – so I did! I used new Pinkfresh inks and I have to confess that I was a little disappointed with the pink which turned out MUCH brighter than I would usually choose.
The silver parcels are cut from the Memory Box Pretty Presents die set and the sentiment is an older set by Poppystamps.
Thanks for stopping by!

The challenge for Day 18 is another sketch.
I bought this large Simon Says Stamp bauble die back at my first Create in 2015. It was a low key event compared to how it is nowadays but I absolutely LOVED it!
Anyway, I used it with some more Tonic Ombre glitter card and pulled out my old Darice and Sizzix 2D embossing folders.

Hi everyone!

The theme of Day 16’s challenge is ‘mistletoe mischief’.
When I saw the theme, I immediately thought I would use a Memory Box die that I use every festive season, but when I was going through my box looking for it, I spotted the lovely Mistletoe Branches dies by Waffle Flower Crafts and decided I should use that instead. I paired it with a Waffle Flower bag die and a Simon Says Stamp embossing folder.

Hi everyone!
I’m playing along with Martin’s 30 Day Christmas Card Challenge this month.
The theme of Day 14’s challenge is ‘Christmas morning’.
It took me a long while to choose a stamp for this challenge! I asked a few friends what the theme conjures up for them – they said presents but I wanted to take a different route…
I originally thought of a peaceful landscape to create a Christmas dawn but while looking through my older stamps, I unearthed my Elzybells stamps and found this sweet Rudolph image. I immediately thought that this could be my different take on the theme – dear Rudolph, completely exhausted on Christmas morning after his very busy night!
I coloured the image with my Twinkling H2O paints and distress inks and created a window scene using the Poppystamps Grand Madison Window die and a brickwork embossing folder by Stampin’ Up.

Hi everyone!
I’m playing along with Martin’s 30 Day Christmas Card Challenge this month.
The theme of Day 13’s challenge is ‘poinsettia perfection’.
I have a good selection of poinsettias but opted for a bargain that I picked up at the start of the year but didn’t get round to using for my Christmas in July. Said bargain is the beautiful Memory Box Poinsettia Corner embossing folder which comes with two dies which I used for the mirror card poinsettias. I coloured some red cardstock with Lumberjack Plaid and Scorched Timber distress inks before embossing it. After adding the mirror card poinsettias, I added a few red pearls to random berries.
The sentiment is by Creative Expressions.
