I had so much fun making this set of matching cards that I actually made a similar set at Christmas (with a video and you can find the link HERE).  I’ve been wanting to challenge myself to this for the Australian Cardmaking, Stamping & Papercraft magazine and when I saw this collection (and it’s an Australian designer) I was sold.  Isn’t it uber sweet.  So enough talking because there is a mass of photos to follow!  And NO stamping either….

Sitting here all chuffed with myself as my tags are made, you see, every year my husband gives gifts to all the staff that have to work on Christmas day and I usually find out that “I” have to make the tags about….   the 24th December lol.  Just loved the bold colours of this challenge and  I couldn’t resist adding a little bit of gold (again right, I know).

Just in Time for Christmas!

~ lostinpaper ~ 13 Comments

Merry Christmas everyone!

I made these cards months ago as they were for a publication call with the Australian Cardmaking, Stamping & Papercraft magazine, but I think they are my favourite Chrissy cards for this year.  I really like the simplicity of the first and then the bokeh colours, well they kinda make me smile, especially with the shimmer of the sequins.  I hope that today you find a smile and get to spend some time with some fun people and of course eat-a-plenty!

Back today with another card for Scrapbook Boutique.  How are things going on the Christmas card front in your house? Here is a very simple idea to make those ‘last second’ cards, you know, the ones that your husband comes home and says ‘can you just make me….. ‘ and it’s usually about 10 or so cards lol.

Back with a wonderful over the edge technique that I love from Laura.  I thought it would be fun to try and get some bold colour with watercolours, of course I had to add just a little sparkle in the flower centres but otherwise I kept it pretty clean & simple.

Definitely out of the box for me, I felt like making an unexpected card for one of my close friends who turned 40.  Not my best photos….   but I’m sure you get the idea, ps her 5 year old son thinks it’s the best thing since sliced bread, the card is constantly in a state of flux!
