Holly berry Christmas wreath

I challenge myself to make this wreath card. This looks great and the only challenge I face was to make sure each quarter holly leaves created the closest perfect circle I can make. I really think this looks simple but very stunning.

To enhance the card, half pearls and rhinestones can be used to embellish  in addition to the glitter glue which gives that random glitter and shine around the wreath.

More landscape Christmas card

The theme is the colour blue. With the combination of Holiday scenes and Thoughful Branches set, the outcome is stunning. To complete the scene, Holiday Homes Santa 's sleigh goes well with the full moon image.

I really think this looks great with the silver ribbon to bring more sparkle to the card.
A similar setting was used in the next card which uses Lovely as a tree set.

I think gray goes well with blue.

Merrimouse

I thought this stamp set is for fun and I have only just used one. I will be exploring the others shortly. I have combined it with the hollies and thoughtful branches, it was fun making the card alive by adding colour to it. It's something that can also be just created in a mono theme if you wish. The sentiments with the set is also great.

Don't the mice look adorable and having fun.


Trees from thoughtful branches

As I mentioned in my earlier post trees and landscape can also be put together from the stamp thoughtful branches. Here I created a combination of the landscaped scene and I think the outcome is stunning.

The excitement of putting the scenery is undescribebable. It's very satisfying to see the detail of the trees. I have combined the canopy colour to make the tree look a lot fuller. I also injected the tree stamp in one of last year's set.




Hollies for Christmas

Another set that I have explored is the set with hollies. It can be bought as a bundle with the punch. I like the set as it comes in a photopolymer stamp and it's great for layering technique. Here are some of the cards I made.



Of the three designs I like first one as it's so stunningly red and red is me.


Beautiful hydrangeas

I am back to creating fun cards. I have found a little bit of time to sit down and create. First these hydrangeas are just stunning. The bundle is called thoughtful branches. It has lots of bits and pieces you can put together to create from flowers, trees, landscape and the list can go on. These layering of the cut foliage makes the most stunning aspect of the card. I'll be creating more of this thinlit to explore its use.



And so here they are. The pink hydrangea is so fun.
