Gifts

Hi there everyone, hope you are having a great day!!!  I made this card this morning to enter into this weeks challenge at Merry Monday Christmas Card Challenge #262 (gifts) http://merrymondaychristmaschallenge.blogspot.com
I used a white cardstock for the base and used Tim Holtz Crazy Dog Stamps and also his accessories stamp, and used Faber and Castelle watercolour pencils to colour these images, I also used an old unknown stamp for the gifts, which I use every Christmas, and I used a stamp which I received as a free item with a magazine "Simply Stamping" published by Practical Publishing, It is a set with stamps and an embossing folder by Sheena Douglass, it is a very pretty stamp, and I also used the F & C watercolour pencils to colour the Indian Images on the card, which look like snowflakes, also I used some Pink Stick On gems on the card, these are also unknown supplier, (I got them from a cheap shop), you can find lots of lovely stuff from these shops.   Hope you all like this card, and thanks so much for visiting,Jasann

Joy

 Hi there everyone, thanks for visiting today, I made this card to enter into the Merry Monday Christmas Challenge #260 (sketch Challenge) and used white cardstock for the base and shaded the edges with Distress Ink Pad, Evergreen Bough, and used two pieces of christmas paper that I had in my stash, it is pretty old, so I don't remember where it came from, but it is pretty, and I used two pointsettias that were in a free set of papers from Adorable Scorable, which I got with a magazine, but it is so long ago I can't remember which one, I should write the name of the magazines when I get these products, and I used a stamp from Graphic 45 - paper pad, St. Nicholas Collection, I like the Graphic 45 papers, as they are very sturdy and great looking.   Hope you like this card, and thanks again for visiting, Jasann

Trees

Hi there everyone, here is a card I made today for this week's challenge on Merry Monday.   http://merrymondaychristmaschallenge.blogspot.com. I used a pale green cardstock for the base and for the topper a white cardstock, and I used Distress Ink Pad "Salty Ocean" for the sky, and "Evergreen Bough" for the trees, which were stamped with a stamp from Merry and Bright Christmas Collection which came with a magazine from Practical Publishing UK.   and the sentiment was stamped with Archival Ink in Black with an unknown stamp which has been in my stash for ages. Hope you like this card, and thanks so much for visiting, Jasann
