Hi there. It's been a week since my last post... another week of super busyness - getting ready for Christmas and not a lot of crafting done. We held our annual neighborhood Christmas party on Tuesday evening. The weather played it's part and it was a nice warm day and into the evening. We had a great evening with a good turnout of neighbors.
Today I packed some supplies to take with me for our week away. Might not get time but at least I'm prepared! Before I did though, I was tidying up some paper patterned scraps and ephemera to put away. And wouldn't you know it... a card sort of appeared!
I used one of Jess Craft's designs from the Stress Free Cardmaking Summit. It is a fast favourite now! Not sure who the ephemera is by... it was in an baggie with no identifying labels. I trimmed my scrap to make the three panels. 2 are 1.5" x 4" and one is 1" x 4" - worked well as the piece had a circle cut out of it and I wasn't able to get three even pieces. I used some kraft card to make my layering mat. The colours on the ephemera matched the flowers on the paper reasonably well. Addes some light brown ink onto the white centre panel and around all the white areas on the flowers to match the creamy background of the paper. Some little blue gems finished it off.
I'm going finish with a quick pic of my littlest Grandson....
Finn was gifted this little Santa suit onsie
Merry Christmas from me to you.
