"Wish you a merry christmas"

I am here with a Christmas card to share with you....

This is my first of many I need to get done in time for christmas...and it really isnt that far away!!

I used lots of sparkly kindly glitz and 3D kindy glitz for the snow...

(thanks for that Jenny I love it!!)

"We wish you a merry christmas, We wish you a merry christmas"!!

I added faux stitching using the 3d kindy glitz... 

Wild Orchid crafts white and blue flowers...with some sparkly kindy glitz too!!

All the ribbon and lace is from my shop Ashcraft and Gifts...

Close up of my coloured Edwin image using distress inks...

This Edwin is from the christmas story collection - Ski Edwin with snowflakes and the background is 

Old Swedish church from the same collection!!

This is the tag thats inside the little pocket...

The inside of my card...this is a marieanne designs die...so cute for christmas cards!!

I hope you like my finished project....

Card from Around the world...

Hi everyone, 

Just thought I'd pop in and show you some photos of one of my cards that was in the latest Magnolia ink Magazine around the world!!

Our theme was to make things to represent what country we lived in so of course I grabbed out my Aussie Magnolia stamps :-)

For this one I used Tilda with uggs...

Amongst my paper stash I found some paper that had a map of Australia on it....perfect!!!

Think it may have been a kaiser brand piece of paper...

The doo hickey used is Lace coaster..

I coloured my Tilda with Prisma colour pencils... Green and gold!!

I hope you like it, and if you haven't already don't forget to grab yourself a copy of Magnolia ink and check out the rest of the DT's work...!!
