Christmas card | Newton's Nook

Hi all!

I hope you are all doing well after the Christmas festivities - I know I am feeling ever so relaxed and so enjoying all the yummy meals.

I haven't shared all my Christmas cards so I thought I would share this card using the adorable Ornament Newton stamp set.

Christmas card | Some Odd Girl

Happy Friday and ohh my Christmas Eve is tomorrow - woohoo!

I made this card using a clear stamp set from Some Odd Girl along with some of my new goodies from Simon Says Stamp, Seven Hills Crafts and Blitsy.

I wanted to use my new embossing powder to create a gold sparkly kinda card but still keep it kinda simple.

Even if Christmas is almost her I am still crafting and creating cause I always need more cards at the last minute!

Thanks for stopping by!

Vintage inspired X-mas card

Hi all - things are starting to get rather hectic these days.

While prepping for Christmas I am almost done with all the exam grading, assignment assessments and all that work stuff - and that means I get to craft and bake non stop from 4 o'clock Tuesday! :)

I made this card using some gorgeous G45 papers and I just love using my WRMK Envelope Punch Board to make these large bows. And these beautiful Petaloo flowers are just divine!

It's so much fun making these dimensional cards - since these are rather expensive to post I just deliver these cards in person.

Thanks for stopping by!

Sparkly blues

Hi all and happy Friday!

I ma so happy Friday is here cause I am so ready for some chill-time and coziness.

I am always trying to get better at making shaker-cards and this shaker was made using the Fuse Tool and some of my newer dies from MY favorite Things.

It is not too Christmas-like this time but it does remind me a tiny bit of winter.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Christmas craft | Sparkly tree tag

Tags are such a fun way to use your stamps and these adorable trees from Some Odd Girl are really fun to use as a simple focal point for a large tag.

I colored the trees using my new Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers and I really like how they turned out.

Plus the gorgeous Nuvo Drops from Tonic Studios look fab on the trees - just love how sparkly and perfectly shaped they are.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Have a great day all!

Christmas | Advent

I simply adore all things Christmas things and I love decorating my house during this season.

For the last 6 years or so I have made/decorated my advent-candle centrepiece and this year I decided to go for simple and classic.

The items I used for this years advent decoration were things I had at home, and I the only items I needed to buy were the candles.

And I may have gone a bit "crazy" with the sparkly snowflakes cause I have a really hard time not adding glitter to everything! 

Happy Advent.

Stamping and water-coloring.

Hi all!

I wanted to create a Christmas card that was different from the traditional kind so I decided to go for colors that I do not use that much.

The gold embossing and that shiny paper are fantastic against the bold colors and the snowflake stamp from MFT are soooo pretty!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Merry Christmas | Watercoloring

Hi all and I hope all my American readers had a wonderful Thanksgiving!

I just got these brand new stamps from Simon Says Stamp the other day and I just had to create a card using them ASAP.

The sentiment is a wood sentiment that I got from a friend here in Iceland.
I heat embossed it with gold embossing powder for the added glow.

These stamps are so fun to work with and I loved how they looked with my new Clean Color Brush markers that I got from Seven Hills Crafts.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Sweet lil Chrismtas card

Hi all.
I just love these cute stamps by Mama Elephant - I mean how cute are these bunnies?!

These dies from MFT are so fun to use and I love how decorative these smaller cards look.

Plus my shaker-card crafting is evolving and that means I might "need" to buy more pretty dies and sequins! :)
