Christmas Card 2024-Jul-25

 Hi,

I am sharing a Christmas card created using a woodblock stamp that I own since a LONG while.  It is nice to ink it up again.  

I stamped in black and colored with alcohol markers.  And added stickles in some areas.  The sentiment is also stamped in black.  Here's an interesting fact about my card, the background panel is a page from a coloring book that I didn't colored, and I thought it makes a perfect backdrop for my framed Christmas icons.

Christmas cards 2022-Jul-26

Hi,

I bet you'd agree with me if I say we all want to stretch our craft supplies.  My project today is the result of stretching my craft supplies.

I had so much making this Christmas Fishes snow globe.   How did I stretch my supply?  You see, the snow glode is actually Lawn Fawn Magic Iris Snow Globe add-on.  However the opening for the Magic Iris is a bit small to use as a snow globe, so I use a round die and cut a bigger opening, and voila, a regular snow globe.  And I've made it shaker card.
