I am sharing a few little projects today.
First up is my tag no 5 for the 12 tags of Christmas Funkie Junkie style. You can find all the details for this challenge by clicking the link.
Here are some details still.
The tag challenge is sponsored by the Funkie Junkie Boutique and doesn't close until December 22, so there is still plenty of time to play, even though Linda is up to tag 6 already.
While playing with the Nicecrane images I decided to also make a couple of little gift bags, using one of my new Sizzix Tim Holtz dies
I used images from the Vintage Christmas Cards set, mounted them on a Spellbinder die cut and then attached them to the bags with a little tag.
Quick, easy and fun to do, and a great little gift to have on hand (filled with a few cookies) for little visitors at Christmas time.
Well, that's it. Hope everyone is having a good week. I'm rather busy right now, so it will be quiet here for a few days, but I'll try and get around to see what you are all up to.
Thanks for visiting like always

Beautiful projects Astrid, I love the tag with the corrugated frame and beautiful poinsettia and the key and wing are a delightful touch. The bags will be so useful at Christmas and I am sure will be well received, especially with cookies in.
Don't work too hard this week.

A wonderful christmas card, dear Astrid, giving the lovely feeling of old dayes christmas.
The image is beautiful, and looks perfect with your lavender colour scheme. Beautiful to place it on the cardboard and with the gorgeous flower and Merry Christmas sign.

What beautiful colours on the FJ tag, and great textures in the frame, flower and leaves. The altered metal pieces look so cool too.

Such a lovely card, Astrid! That Santa image is wonderful and it looks great mounted on the corrugated cardboard. The poinsettia is just gorgeous and I love the verdigris wax on the key and wing. Super take on my week #5 tag - sorry I'm so late stopping over to look at it. Somehow I missed seeing it earlier. So glad you shared it with us!
Hugs,
Linda
