Merry Christmas....

Hello,

 Hope you are all well and ready to go for the big day!

I would like to share with you a Canvas that I have altered.

I have distressed the canvass with walnut stain. Then I added some Inka Gold all over this.

I have coloured Magnolia's Sitting Tilda with Teddy Bear with distress inks.

The wording JOY I have die cut using Quickutz. Then added Star Dust stickles.

The Tando Snowflake Plaque and Scroll I have crackle painted, distressed with walnut stain and then covered with Inka Gold paint.

The snowflakes are Magnolia Doohickeys. I have added some bandage and the leaf scrolls are Doohickey dies too. 

Behind Tilda, I have added Magnolia Designer paper and a doily from Little Yellow Bicycle. Then added some bling.

Thank you so very much for visiting with me and I would like to take this opportunity to wish you all a very 

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Thank you all so much for your amazing support of me this year. It has meant so much thank you!

Home for Christmas......

Hello,

I hope that you are well and not too stressed. Can you believe that we only have four more sleeps until the big day!

Here is a card that I made using Magnolia's Sweet Christmas Dreams images.

I have masked Winter Tilda and stamped Welcome to a Sweet Christmas image behind her. I used Archival Coffee to stamp my images onto 300gsm watercolour paper.

The stickles I have added are Star Dust.

The die cuts are Magnolia Doohickeys.

Everything has been distressed with Walnut Stain.

Here for the inside left of my card. I have pin pricked the edges. The Magnolia Santa's Sack has been stamped and then the wax seals have been glossed with Glossy Accents. 

The die cut is Magnolia Mistletoe.

I have stamped Christmas Love Holly in the corner and added Sakura glitter pen to the hearts.

Thank you so much for visiting with me and I wish you all a great rest of the week!

CANDY DRAW NOW CLOSED

Make a Christmas Wish........

Hello,

I hope all is good with you and that your Christmas preparations are going well.

Today I have a card I made using Magnolia's Halo Tilda.

I have coloured Tilda with distress inks. I have used Archival Coffee to stamp Tilda with for a change, onto 300 gsm hp water colour paper.

Everything is edged with walnut stain and the stickles I have used are Star Dust.

I die cut the star using Quickutz and then covered this with clear crackle glaze.

To give the bells some sparkle I covered them in versamark and then added ultra thick embossing powder and then added glitter before heating.

For the inside left I die cut a cuttlebug snowflake.

I added Magnolia's Mistletoe die cuts to the inside right.

Thank you so very much for visiting with me, and for all your comments I appreciate them so much. Wishing you all a brilliant rest of the week!

I hope that you are all well. Can you believe December is rushing by so fast! Managed to get most of my Christmas pressies yesterday phew! So much pressure! Hope your Christmas list is more organised than mine!

Today I have another Christmas card to share with you.

I have coloured my Magnolia image with distress inks.

The sparkle is stickles star dust and I have added some liquid pearls too.

The hearts are nesties die cuts which I have painted with crackle paint and distressed with walnut stain.

I have die cut the Magnolia Snowflakes and then sprayed them with Glimmer Mist in Gold.

I have decorated the inside too.

Also, I have edged all my edges with walnut stain and then added some Gold Leaf Pen to them.

Here is the inside left.

The heart border is a Magnolia die and I have added gold leaf pen to this and the Magnolia die cut Lamp Post.

I have used the Snowflakes which were in Magnolia's Stamp Club they are so gorgeous to add around my card.
