more snowglobes and baubles

As I said last time we have non Christmas versions and Christmas ones using these two dies.
These are the Christmassy ones.



The nativity scene had holographic mirri card as a background. Look at the difference with the light on the first picture and the last. It is the same card!

More on these to follow...….

Snowglobes and baubles for any occasion

Having purchased the snowglobes and bauble dies from "John Next Door" range I set about trying to see how we can use them all the year round. We do get snowglobes in tourist shops for places visited etc. so I have done a few on places but also used flowers with them. What I like about this die is that it can be used on its own as a card or as a card topper.
The bauble I really liked when used with the fairy papercuts.
Note you can use these as shaker cards or not. As usual I tried to use them in many ways and more can be seen next time as we look at more Christmassy ideas.
We start with these on the September workshops.

Baby Cards

I was busy a couple of weeks ago  making baby cards since I had a new grandchild expected. I had a number of boys cards but not so many girls in stock so I needed to do more.
I also wanted to do a hanger - I had to produce two colour versions of the bottom box since they didn't want to know the sex beforehand.
We now have a new grandson whom we saw last week so I can now show what I have been doing.

Making Faces

 Having done a workshop session with Jane Davenport I thought I ought to try  a few more faces using the products in her making faces range and on the faces she produces.
These are a few of my starters - you obviously can go to town as much as you want with these but I was restricted by the range of colours I had
Anyway it was just something different to try...
