Christmas Cards

I know! Don't faint, but I've actually made a start on Christmas cards..

Hello, from a very wet Liverpool. 
It's been a wet and windy few days and not really good for trying to take photos of cards but I've 
done my best
 

These were pretty quick to make which is how I like things. Stenciled backgrounds varying the colours 
the trees die cut and embossed, the sentiment embossed. I like to mix powders to give different looks and the trees were done using a mix of silver, gold and a sparkly one called 'under the sea'.

 
depending on the light, they twinkle different colours

 
The stencil is one by Nellies Choice and was on sale at Crafts4Less. 
It's an A6 stencil so I just used part of it.

I even made some postbox cards



These are very sparkly though it's difficult to capture that. The postbox was a digital one 
that I altered to make it look more "British'
 
Before I leave you to enjoy your weekend I just wanted to share a photo of my Gingerboy, I bought him a new cat chair/bed which he absolutely loves! Turned out he's far too big and far too heavy for it so he tipped out a couple of times  - The second time the chair landed on top of him and he looked like a turtle which made me laugh, though he was not happy. Now I've used my dumbbells to secure it for the time being.


Have a wonderful weekend and thanks so much for your visit

Till soon
