Christmas wreath

Merry Christmas! Wishing you a happy holiday.

Today I am sharing a pop-up card. I love interactive card and this is my first attempt at pop-up card and I hope you liked it.

Monochromatic background stamping

Hello. Hope you are doing well today.

For today's cards, I used the same technique by stamping small images with inks that complement the card base.                

Missing You This Holiday Season

Hello and thanks for dropping by today.

I blacked heat embossed on watercolour paper and watercoloured this cute girl from MFT Pure Innocence Warm Winter (discontinued set). I fussied-cut the image and brushed the side of the image with black marker.

I blended various shades and combinations of Distress ink –Tumbled Glass, Shaded Lilac and Spun Sugar on white card stock. MFTSnow Drift die-cut and the coloured girl image were foam mounted on a side-folding card base.

Bauble shaker card

Hello and welcome.

Today, I am sharing this Christmas bauble shaker card. I used 2 different techniques to raise the card front for the shaker and will share my experience with them.

I did not have any bauble die so I made my own bauble from some circle die and specialty papers.

Hope Santa brings you lots of goodies

Hello. Hope you are having a good day.

For today’s card, I stamped Mama Elephant Toy Shop image on watercolor paper, black heat embossed (with VersaMark and Wow Primary EbonySuper Fine embossing powder) and colored the image with watercolor. 

Clean and simple Christmas card

Hello and thanks a lot for dropping by.

This is my last card for the Caring Hearts Card Drive. As I was short of time and really wanted to make more cards to support the cause, I made some clean and simple one-layer card.

Christmas carol

Hello and Welcome.

Today I am showing another set of cards I made for the Caring Hearts Card Drive.

The dark background was blended using Distress Ink – Wilted Violet and Faded Jeans and sprayed with Perfect Pearls infused water and dabbed off. The ground was blended in using Distress Ink - Ground Espresso and Hickory Smoke and dabbed on with MFT white pigment ink. For one of the card, I wanted the ground to be snow-covered so I masked off the area before I blended the sky.

Christmas tree deco

Hello. This is Linda. Welcome to my blog. I started this blog to share with you my handmade cards. Card making is super-fun and you get to be creative and personalised it. I hope you will enjoy reading my blog and it will inspire you.

Today card is one I made for the Caring Hearts Card Drive where greeting cards were collected for elderly in nursing homes. This is such a sweet cause and so easy for us card makers to make a difference. Really hope these cards bring festive cheers to someone. As I was making a bunch of cards and wanted to save on postage, I tried to make one layer cards so it would be lighter.
