Another Christmas Card...

and another Christmas card... I actually added some stickles glitter glue to the snowflakes embossed on the white card after I'd taken this photo...

Christmas Card - Hello Kitty...

My husband asked me to make his boss a Hello Kitty Christmas Card as she apparently loves Hello Kitty! I did my best to oblige and here is the result...

I used some red dotty paper & ran a piece of white card through my cuttlebug snowflake embossing folder! The image was actually a small tag/card and I embellished using glossy accents for her coat & hair bow and Stickles for her collar & coat hem and the sentiment... I also added some snowflakes cut with my Martha Stewart punch and some card candy covered in more stickles to finish it off...

Birthday Card for my niece...

I made this card for my niece's 14th birthday in December - I love this image as it looks like me (black hair!) and my two nieces so it was very fitting! So I coloured the image in photoshop & used glossy accents & stickles glitter to highlight the images and the same with the printed out sentiments & hearts which I also glittered with stickles and as her birthday was in December I decided to also add some snowflakes - and scalloped circles cut & embossed using my lovely Cuttlebug...

Christmas Cards I made...

Finally getting round to updating my blog - its been ages! Anyway here are some photos of some more Christmas Cards I made - I totally ran out of time so if you didn't get a card from me I am sooooo sorry!! I promise to do better next Christmas as my plan is to make Christmas cards throughout the year!!

I made these two cards for my nieces and personalised them with their names using digital images which I embellished by using glossy accents and stickles glitter glue for the santa hats, also used my swiss dots cuttlebug folder to emboss the red & white paper and used my cuttlebug scalloped rectangles to cut the shapes. The scalloped cards were from Craftwork Cards & I also used the digital santa download from Pollycraft...

Made these for my mum & dad & my brother & SIL...
