W is for Wish upon a Star

Afternoon All

Here is my card for today W is for Wish Upon A Star..





I really love this new stamp and fits this challenge just right.  With plenty of glitter and some lovely bright colours.  I am really pleased with how this card turned out.

The card, paper and ribbon I have used are from my stash as I am determined not to spend too much this year on papers etc.... so I need to use up some of the mountain of stash that I have (not doing to bad at using it up).

V is for Vintage Christmas

Afternoon All,

Here is my Card for today.  V is for Vintage Christmas.



Not to sure if I like this one as it is a little different for me.  The main image is one of the Stampendous Cling stamps called Saint Nick, all the paper and card are from my stash and not a promarker in sight.  The distress ink I have used is Walnut Stain and I have used it to stamp the main image and to distress around the edge.

Afternoon All

Continuing with the challenge I am taking part in here is my T card or should I say Cards.  I am also entering the first card into the LOTV challenge for this week Bright & Sparkly
