Polkadoodles Gingerbread House

Hello and a happy new year!

The following cards were made before Christmas but I didn't get a chance to post them - sorry if you are sick of seeing Christmas cards!

Warning - sunglasses needed to protect against glare!! 

The image is  pre coloured Polkadoodles 'Gingerbread House'.

The pink and silver background paper is from the art studio which I mounted onto some silver board. My sentiment is computer generated and I used lots of glossy accents and glitter.

Elegant Christmas Baubles

For today's card I used another Etsy download called Elegant Christmas Baubles. I cut it out with a stitched square die and mounted it on gold mirror card. I then added gems, Stickles and gold thread. My sentiment is computer generated.  The green and gold background paper is STAMPIN UP SEASONS OF ELEGANCE DSP

With Love at Christmas

Hello and happy Sunday!

I was recently inspired (as I always am!) by the fabulous Jules-always with a heart blog in making today's card for 2 reasons - 1: is that she has been making stunning Christmas cards using Etsy images and 2: because it's got hearts on it!! 💕

The image is called Watercolour vintage Christmas window (sorry I can't link it directly as it's against Stampin Up rules if you are a demonstrator) but you should  be able to find it from that description.

The background paper is from the Art studio, I also used a stitched square die and twine. My sentiment is computer generated. I also added a tiny bit of glitter to the hot air balloon heart!

The brads are Stampin up adhesive-backed-metallic-gems

I love all of the images in this set and have made lot's more Christmas cards which I will share soon.
