Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas

Good morning!  Another last minute card to show you today, again featuring Maja Design papers and Magnolia Doohickey dies!

The image inside the house is the gorgeous fireplace stamp from the Dashing Through The Snow stamp set.  I have placed it behind some acetate that I have scored with a diamond pattern to look like a leaded window.

I have used the So Wrapped Merry Christmas Doohickey die for the tags and a snowflake Doohickey.  The gold hearts on the top of the lace are the offcuts from the Heart Background Doohickey.

Once again I have used the shutter die from the Flower and Window Shutter Doohickey set, and I have added Aleene's Glitter snow to the window sill.  The sentiment is from the Merry Little Santa stamp set by Magnolia.

The cute snowman is also a Doohickey die!

 I hope you like it and thanks for looking! x

Craft Heaven DT - A Vintage Christmas Card

Good afternoon!  I hope you have had a wonderful Christmas!  Today I'd like to show you one of the last minute cards I made.  I always leave my hand delivery cards until last, and this is one of them.  I have used gorgeous papers from Maja Design and Doohickey dies from Magnolia.

The main focus of the card is the beautiful shutters, cut with the Early Bird Volume 22, Shutter Flower and Window Shutter die.  I cut ten pieces in all so that I could glue them together to look like chipboard pieces.

I have used some older Magnolia sentiment stamps, Let it Snow and Merry Christmas.

I made the flowers using the Doohickey dies from the window shutter set, using green Foamiran.  I have inked the edges of the flowers with Aged Mahogany Distress Ink, sprinkled them with glitter and added red stamens.  I've also given them a touch of snow using Aleene's Glitter Snow.

The gorgeous gold scroll has been cut with a Doohickey die from Volume 23.

The snowflakes have all been cut using various Doohickey snowflake dies.

 The beautiful snowflake charm and seam binding are from Craft Heaven.

I hope you like it and thanks for looking!

Craft Heaven DT - Autumn Card

Good afternoon!  Today I'd like to share my latest card for Craft Heaven.  We are using an Autumn theme this week.  As I'm really not kean on orange colours on my cards I decided to use the reds and browns of autumn leaves together with a grey paper from Maja Design - the sky is always grey in Autumn right?!

I used the gorgeous Summer Dream Art Stamp kit but painted the flowers as though they are poppies and cornflowers - both of which are still flowering in my garden!  As always I have painted the image with Distress Inks using the no lines technique.  I also added some stickles to the dots around Tilda.

How cute is the bird house Doohickey?  I love it!  I have also used the stunning tree Doohickey from Volume 22.

The Autumn leaves were also cut with a Doohickey from Volume 22.  I cut them from kraft cardstock and then used Distress Inks to colour them.  The hessian style Doohickey is also from Volume 22.

I hope you like it and thanks for looking!  Pop over to the Craft Heaven blog for more inspiration from the rest of the design team!
