Home For The Holidays

Kraft card stock is fabulously versatile and coordinates beautifully with most other colours. I've combined it with mint green and a lovely warm pink for a delicious looking creation that makes me think of cookies and candy... all the good things that fill a kitchen at this time of year!

Anesha's Jolly Holiday


We're off on a Jolly Holiday to Anesha's place, where she has four fabulous creations to share with us. Each has been beautifully coloured and teamed with various Christmas inspired embossing folders, die cuts and embellishments to create festive projects that are sure to bring smiles to her family and friends. Don't forget to click through to Anesha's blog for even more wonderful cards, tags and handmade gifts.

Hot Tip Tuesday


Have you ever wanted to have a go at the no-line colouring technique but held back because you didn't have an ink pad light enough? Here's a very simple solution... use a second or even third generation stamped image. Just ink up your stamp as you regularly do, stamp once or twice (depending on how dark your ink is) on some scrap paper and then stamp the third time onto your card stock. The image will be a lot lighter than usual because you removed much of the ink with the earlier impressions. Easy!

Gift Tag Set

I don't usually make my own gift tags but I seem to have accumulated a lot of card stock off-cuts this year and decided to try using them up. Since most of them are narrow strips, it seemed a good idea just to turn them into little tags. I've used the coloured version of the Home For The Holidays digital stamps, which I fussy cut and popped up with foam tape. Easy!

A Jolly Holiday With Deanne


Today's inspiration comes from Deanne's studio in the form of two gorgeous Christmas cards featuring images from the Jolly Holiday set of digital stamps. Both have lots of fabulous sparkle and shine from liberal applications of both glitter and Glossy Accents to make them extra festive! Pretty papers and ribbons with trim finish both projects ready for Christmas giving.

The November Month of Holiday Cards Challenge has come to an end, but our gallery remains filled with fabulous cards, tags and paper craft projects that will keep me feeling inspired for weeks to come! I want to extend a hearty thank you to everyone who played along, shared their projects, made comments or simply stopped by to enjoy the community feeling... it's been a pleasure!
