12 Tags of Christmas - Day 9



Here is my version of Tim's Day 9.  I enjoyed  making the rosette without using the die that Tim has!  I would do them again for scrapbook embellishments, I think they are quite effective.

Chocolate!


The new challenge on My Time To Craft is Chocolate.  For my DT work I made this cute card using one of my House Mouse stamps and chocolately coloured bps by HOTPI added Primas, Liquid Pearls  and doodled a little to finish!

New Things

I need to make a quick card and saw the challenge on Sparkles Forum Challenge Blog is New Things so this card applies for that!  I bought a book of images from Crafty Individuals with some Christmas money and used 2 of them on this quick card which also used up old stash (something I badly need to do!), the pearlescent card I have had ages from an old QVC kit and the bp is Flavia which I again bought a few years ago from QVC!  The sentiment is by Daisy and Dandelion.

Up In The Air



The new challenge on My Time To Craft is Up In The Air.  I needed a quick card so for my DT work I made this one using a Penny Black Stickeroo and a Daisy and Dandelion sentiment.  One of my New Year's resolutions is to use up stash I have had for ages so this used a couple of things up!  The flowers are punched with a Martha Stewart punch and an unknown little one that is handy for flower centres.
