Happy Tuesday! Today I am back with some Christmas creations. First is a cute little tag that was published in the Paper Crafts Holiday Cards & More, Volume 5. A MUST-HAVE-MAGAZINE! So many fab projects for Christmas! I can't stop looking through that mag for inspiration! Here is one of my projects:
This little gingerbreadman tag is very versatile, you can embellish it like you would do with christmas cookies! You'll find the free pattern for it here, as well as another pattern for a gift bag I made. The poinsettia gift bag was featured here.Now to a card. Jennifer McGuire is back at 2Peas with another Thinking Inking Class!! Yay! I made a card for the first week:
This is a hybrid card, the holly is from a Hero Arts digi kit called "Season's Greetings Collage". I inked the holly quickly with distress inks, stamped the "Old Letter Writing" over it and cut it out (not so quickly). On the background I stamped the "Music Background" (I so so love it and thanks to a sweet sweet friend I own it now!). The sentiment is from another Hero Arts set called "Merry Christmas". The gems are Prima Marketing. Can't wait to try the new techniques Jennifer shows us this week! Oh and I'll enter this card to this month's Hero Arts challenge "Holiday Cardmaking".

I had to free the windows of my car from ICE this morning!!! Can't believe it's that cold already! But we still have beautiful sunshine. Love the light this time of the year! My little one is enjoying her sandpit and her Mom is enjoying every sandcake she bakes. Raspberry and Chocolate. And sometimes Cherry Cake :) With whipped cream. Love listening to her sweet voice while she is "baking" singing "Backe backe Kuuchen...". It's melting my heart everytime.
Have a sunny day and thanks for visiting, sweet friends!
Hugs,
Vanessa
