Glitter Bauble

By
It's time for another 52 {Christmas} Card Throwdown  challenge - gosh that came around quick again and golly did I make a mess of this one!
I was out most of yesterday and came home exhausted, tried to make my card, ruined 2 pieces of card stock and went to bed in a very bad mood! I actually slept for 12 hours (!) woke up and made a new card - here it is


You may be able to spot a sneaky peak of a new item coming in the new catalogue - more on that story later!

Materials - Stampin' Up
Card Stock: Whisper White, Naturals White, Rose Red, Certain Celery. Silver Glimmer Paper
Accessories: Big Shot, Embossing Folder, Bitty Punch, Holiday Ornaments Die
(Please do drop me an e-mail if you would like to order any of the above items or indeed any Stampin' Up product from the two current catalogues found in my side bar - all my details are above in the top tabs - thanks).

 I'm off to a local charity event later, it's called 'Strawberry Saturday' however there will be no strawberries! I found that to be very strange so I'm taking my own! It's local musical artists playing outdoors so I am hoping that the weather will stay dry too - have a great weekend - Jacqueline xx

    Strawberry Fields forever maybe?!
    You must have needed that sleep so don't feel bad about it!
    I just did the same thing with my itty bitty punches in my new embossing folder - don't they work well? Love the glitter for the bauble - a great centre piece. Enjoy the event!

    I like how you've used the glimmer paper to create your ornament. The embossed background with the green accents is great, too.

    Oh geeze I hate when that happens too Jacqueline. But you rebounded nicely and made a gorgeous card. Love the background - very creative and the glittery ornament that is front and center. Fabulous!

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

 I have decided to try and get on top of my Christmas cards early this year and so far it’s going well!!! Here is a card that has been made using the Sweet Gingerbread set - I love gingerbread houses and the stamps and matching dies are really cute. I used the sketch from  52 Christmas Card Throwdown  - this is a brilliant Christmas challenge blog (I started it many years ago with Mynn Kitchen) and it’s a perfect way to get organised with Christmas crafting. Thank for stopping by today - see you soon - J xx
