EMBOSSED SNOWFLAKES

 


Hello bloggers! It's Saturday so it's time for a new challenge at Crafty Hazelnut's Christmas Challenge . As always, it's an "ANYTHING GOES" challenge as long as it's Christmas related, with the optional theme this week of"EMBOSSING, WET OR DRY."

I've had a little tidy up of my craft room this week....obviously finding things I'd forgotten about. This backing paper is from a complete pad I found tucked away. I die cut a stitched square of it, layering up an embossed snowflake circle, and a sentiment cut from red card.

Looking forward to seeing your makes (but not looking forward to going back to work after two weeks off!).

STYLISH CHRISTMAS

 


Hello bloggers! It's Saturday so it's time for a new challenge at Crafty Hazelnut's Christmas Challenge . As always, it's an "ANYTHING GOES" challenge as long as it's Christmas related, with the optional theme this week of "FOR A LADY OR A GIRL".

I don't have many girly girl friends but I do have ONE very girly one, and this card will be for her. I have used paper, topper and sentiment from Hunky Dory....I may add a bit more sparkle arrange the outside. She loves sparkle!

Looking forward to seeing your makes.

NO STAMPS

 


Hello bloggers! It's Saturday so it's time for a new challenge at Crafty Hazelnut's Christmas Challenge . As always, it's an "ANYTHING GOES" challenge as long as it's Christmas related, with the optional theme this week of "NO STAMPED OR DIGITAL IMAGE".

I have used some papers from a freebie magazine collection, simply layered up and added a wooden snowflake.

I am dog sitting this week. We have welcomed the lovely Marley, and English Bulldog, to our home. She is so cute but a little bonkers!

Looking forward to seeing your makes.

CHEEKY PERCY

 


Hello bloggers! It's Saturday so it's time for a new challenge at Crafty Hazelnut's Christmas Challenge . As always, it's an "ANYTHING GOES" challenge as long as it's Christmas related, with the optional theme this week of "INCLUDE A PENGUIN".

I missed you all last week. Work is a nightmare at the moment, and no signs of getting any better for a while. Since when did part time turn into 40 hour+ weeks?! Good job I love my job!

Anyway, I had a little time spare to make my card this week. I've used an embossing folder and an icicle die cut  to make this card. The backing paper is from a wad of Christmas papers I found whilst I was looking for something else, as you do! I've added a cute little penguin which I think is fromWhimsy stamps, coloured in with Copics. Cheeky little chap!

Looking forward to seeing your makes.

GARDENING GIRL

 


Good morning! It's a new month which means it's new challenge time at Crafty Hazelnut's Patterned Paper Challenge. The theme, as always, is "ANYTHING GOES". We simply require you to use some patterned paper or card. Time to use that stash!

I had a little rummage through my papers today, and came across a collection I'd forgotten about, as you do. I love this collection of papers, gardening themed so ideal for a special gardening friend. I have used a Kraft card base and cut four rectangles from the papers. I used a black fine liner to add faux stitching and completed the card with a wooden frame featuring the "Thank you" stamped sentiment.

Looking forward to seeing your makes.
