I made a Christmas card today! I should be cross stitching a Silver Wedding picture to be framed though... I've got to make two, and I've less than two weeks left to do them... and that's putting me off!!!!!!!!!!!
Anyway. I'd tried to get this months Do Crafts Creativity magazine this week and was unable to, but my friendly Coleman's shop emailed the other shops, and got one in for me and I picked it up this morning. The magazine is SO worth the cover price of £2.50 because I got this gorgeous Daisy cuddly stamp, complete with the tag greetings stamp as well, as a free gift! How fab is that?!
So I used some of last years Christmas papers for the layering and matting. I stamped Daisy in a dark brown Tom Holtz distress ink so that I could just water brush over her for the colouring. I added glitter to her Christmas hat, and I red Stickles glittered the red roses, and hung a little Christmas tree charm off of the tag. Such a cute stamp.
This card suits the challenge on Fab's Big Christmas Card Challenge perfectly. So I've entered this cute and square card there. Thanks Avril for the pointer x.
Hi Roz this is superb. I managed to get my hands on the magazine on Saturday, last one in the shop.....love the stamp, you should post this to Fabrizo's challenge, he is looking for a cute, square, xmas card, you can check it out at http://fabsbigchristmascardschallenge.blogspot.oom/
