Together At Christmas

Hi All
Today's card is for the last challenge of the year at Cardz For Galz, and we would like to see your girly 'Christmas' cards.
I have used my new Stampin Up embossing folder to create some texture behind my decoupaged cute couple. The card was finished with a stamped sentiment. I love the fresh colours of this card, and think it makes a nice change from the traditional red and green cards.
I would like to take this opportunity to wish you all a Happy Christmas, and would love you to join in the last challenge of the year.
Thanks for stopping by, and please comeback soon.
Big Christmas hugs.
Sharon xx

Cutie Pie

I have used a LOTV stamp, coloured with ProMarkers and then highlighted with glitter on the fairy wings and fur trim. I have kept the layout rather simple and the colours very subtle - I hope you like it. Finally the card was finished with a rub on sentiment and a small pink bow.

Vintage Poinsettia

Hello Again, I'm Back 
Todays creation is for the new challenge over at Cardz For Galz, and this week we would like to see your 'Vintage Christmas' girly cards.
I have used a very old poinsettia stamp on my card. I have silver heat embossed it onto vellum, then coloured it on the reverse. I have repeated this several times, before layering up the petals to make a more realistic looking flower, that has been finished in the centre with some bling. It has then simply been matted onto an ornate die cut to give a CAS yet vintage feel to the card.
I would like to enter my card in the following challenges;
Crafting By Design - anything goes
Little Red Wagon - traditional Christmas colours
Mod Squad - recipe
I Heart Sketches - sketch and/or heat embossing
Christmas Card - anything goes

I hope you like my little creation, and that it will inspire you to join in the challenge.
Thanks for stopping by, and I'll be back soon with some more cards.
Hugs Sharon xx

Nutcracker Delight

Hello Everyone.
Today I am very excited to share an extra card with you, as I have been lucky enough to have been chosen to guest design for Through The Craft Room Door. The challenge is 'anything goes'.
I was lucky enough to be given the Nutcrackers set from Deedee's Digis to play with. I have printed a row of the line drawn images, then decoupaged a coloured image onto one of the blank ones. I love this effect of just a black and white card with a pop of colour.
