Mistletoe Santa

Good Morning Bloggers & a happy Saturday to you all!
What a week it's been, so glad I can put my feet up for a couple of days!
The card I have to share with you today is one for La Pashe!


This little stepper card was made using the Mistletoe Santa from the very popular 
I love stepper cards as I always feel the stand out in a crowd!
The card blank is actually made by La Pashe too so that makes it all very simple.
The paper & sentiment are from the CD too!


Here's a closer look at the image!
I'm not sure if Santa is delighted or horrified! lol
As you can see I've added some tiny adhesive pearls to the mistletoe
& to Granny's necklace! The image & backing paper have been matted on to
some red foil paper from my stash! 


Here's a little side view of the card.
The only other embellishment I have added is the little bow!
Not in to CD crafting? Well , here's just the thing for you!

You can of course buy the sheets singly too!

Silver Fox Trot

Good Morning all!
Almost the weekend! Woo Hoo!
Time for a Just Inklined card!


I've made a 70th Birthday card for a lady who loves dancing!


The image I have used is Silver Fox Trot., from Just Inklined.
This image is also available on The Wrinklies CD Rom.
I coloured it up with a mix of flexmarkers & promarkers, cut out with a nestie
 & inked the edges with Antique Linen & Spun Sugar distress inks.


The button was made in my graphics programme. It was mounted on a piece of 
foam tape for some dimension. I love doing these little buttons!


I have no idea who the paper is by as it's unmarked 
& came from a goody box I purchased eons ago!
I added some of my precious favourite lace from my stash, then made three little panels 
which I fanned out to echo the line of her dress.  A double satin bow & a couple of 
stick pins were also added just to finish it off!


I decorated the inside of the card with some of the DP & a little
panel for a message to be written.
I was just looking at this image & thinking it would also be great for a
Christmas card or perhaps New Year if teamed with seasonal papers!
Thanks for popping in!

Wrinklies Mistletoe Paper

Good Morning bloggers!
I have a little card to share with you today!
This one was made just for fun & there is a bit of a deliberate mistake on it!
Can you see what it is?


This is a stepper card made using the mistletoe paper from
The stepper card blank is by La Pashe.


I printed the verse (from the internet) onto some matching cream card
 then used a nestie & the mat supplied to cut a frame for it!


The only other embellisment I have added is a sheer ribbon bow 
with a little bell attached!
A quick, jolly & simple card made in a matter of minutes! 
I don't know about you but I just love that sometimes!
