Christmas in July

By
Today at Make My Monday we have a fab new challenge set for us by DT lady Laura - she wants to see some Christmas Cards - come and see mine


I was greatly inspired by Vicky's card HERE when I made this - I took her idea of the hanging mosaic shape and expanded a little - they do make lovely little baubles don't they? And guess what? Tomorrow the BRAND NEW Stampin' Up catalogue goes live and you can order them along with the co-ordinating punch in a special bundle.
As I do with most of my Christmas cards I used the now legendary Lovely as a Tree pine tree too with a sparkly star added to the top.
Just the two colours were used - Riding Hood Red (now retired) and Garden Green.
Have fun creating your Christmas cards this week and I will see you soon - Jacqueline xx

    This has worked so well with a combination of the old and new. The tree set is a favourite and I can see the mosaic shapes could be used for all sorts of ideas.

Yikes - I'm a bit late posting today, but when I got into my studio this morning I had forgotten that it looked like this I had a big family lunch yesterday and 'cos our house is so small, I have to keep stuff moving from room to room in order for there to be enough space. So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr...

My work space is quite long and this week I have managed to use up all available surfaces .........with mess! starting at the left hand end  This is the devestation left from yestersday's Project Tuesday challenge and some atc making. Moving on This is where I usualy do all my 'messy' crafting hence all the Distress Inks and paints. However at the moment there is a rather large pile of paper work in the way (meeting minutes and accounts etc) - this really needs to be tackled asap - however still moving on This is the other end where I am piling up all the bits and pieces for my workshop tomorrow night - we are doing medallion cards - so much to do so l...
