Hello ...
I'm making more Christmas cards recently ... I don't know about you but sometimes I find the transition from making Christmas projects back to making birthday projects a little difficult ... so right now I'm in Christmas mode and I thought I link my card up with those lovely ladies at
Jingle Belles Rock
where the theme is the Great Outdoors

Having sponged and stencilled I die cut the bottom half and left it slightly wider than my card to give it that curved effect
Of course I gave no consideration as to how this would go into an envelope Lol! But who cares ... I just like it ...
I'm hoping you can see the glitter on those stars ... It's certainly all over my craft space and just about everything else ... Ginger cat is positively sparkling! And no one goes home from here without taking a little with them... whether they want to or not Lol!
I hope your week is sparkling ...
Hugs

ReplyDeleteFact that you made the border die cut slightly wider adds a lovely detail. The houses are so sweet and the sparkling stars are a true eye catcher. Love your use of sponging technique too. Hence the postage; it's a gem!

I do love your style, Ros! This is one fabulous card--I do see all the sparkle!
ReplyDeleteCool card! Love the soft tone too!
ReplyDeletehello, missus! i was just thinking of you the other day (i used one of your uber-cool candycanes!) rockin' the "great outdoors" at JINGLE BELLES! now that's a great way to brighten up a week!!! absolutely love this, and of it won't fit into an envelope you'll just have to deliver it to someone special! ♥♥♥
ReplyDeleteLove the fun dimension in your pretty landscape ... and the stars are fantastic too ... so glad you ventured into the great outdoors with us at Jingle Belles.
ReplyDeleteYour card is beyond GORGEOUS Ros!
ReplyDeleteThank You~
I say just add it to the top of a package and them it won't have to get squashed in an envelope. :-) The curved shape is fun and what's Christmas without some glitter. :-) Hugs!
ReplyDeletePeaceful and elegant card....very pretty!!! How are the kitties doing??? Staying warm I hope!!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous Ros! I love how you always manage to add depth and interest to your cards and still keep them CAS, you are a creative genius! I just love the glittery stars and the raised village! hugs :)
ReplyDeleteLove you village scene, Ros, that is a lot of intricate cutting.
ReplyDeleteIsn't is the perfect little village to be celebrating Christmas in? Love the fact that it pops up, great scene, Ros! Hugs, Ira

Great card Ros. I bought this die after being inspired by another card of yours that used it and I love what you have done here with the curve and also the background.
ReplyDeleteI'm just smiling..."simply" gorgeous
ReplyDeleteI agree! That's what padded envelopes are for. Right?! So fun! Love the curved design to bits, and your little line of houses is ever so sweet!
ReplyDeleteThis card is so unusual. I love the central bulge, it gives you a great 3D effect.
