Today I have a couple of quick Christmas cards to share. I am still on a mission to make most of this year's cards myself.
I decided to pull out some of my Tim Holtz stash, - old and new and have a play. I won't bore you with detailed descriptions, but if you have any questions, feel free to email.
Card number one, using the globe and doily dies.
Card number 2, using some of the new stamps and layering stencils:
Well, there you have it, another two to add to my box, still quite a few more to do. Hope you are all finding the time to do something creative during these busy days, - I find it actually relaxes me and that surely must be a good thing....
Thanks for your visit

Really wonderful cards, and I must confess that easpecially the 2nd card just hit me right in my heart. It is so gorgeous and sooo romantic, that I think I´m really in love with it. I like them both a lot, but this last one is just over the top gorgeous in my book. Well done Astrid, you really hit it here with these, and what a lucky person, who´ll recieve that last one, that´s for sure. It´s real keepsake in my book.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful cards Astrid, love them both with all their gorgeous layers and details.
