I apologise if you are one of those who refuse to admit the existence of Christmas from Twelfth Night until the beginning of December, but having vowed to make 6 cards every month I can proudly say that I have actually made 10 already! Today I finished off all of them with insert sheets and my stamp on the back so feel very pleased with myself, although I do realise it puts me in danger of losing my self-professed position of World Chief Procrastinator.
The cards are all made from the inherited pack of decoupage prints, and having used the ones I liked best I've now handed the rest over to my daughter - those were all designs for children and since she makes far more children's cards than I they are of more use to her. So I am also doing well on the 'Using up my Stash' front, and I made a point of using lots of scraps for the die cuts, by sticking glitter paper onto card before cutting. The dies are all Nestabilities except for the Merry Christmas which is a Marianne die in 2 sizes (I cut off the attached snowflakes). I've scanned the cards in pairs and apologise for the crookedness, but they were spinning round on the scanner platform like Olympic hopefuls on a skating rink!




Oh how pretty!
ReplyDeleteWell, you're just getting a big head start, aren't you? I've actually been thinking of doing the same thing. I always am crafting like mad the last few weeks trying to get done in time. I think you have the right idea. :) Very nice!
ReplyDeleteYou have been quite busy and oh my, are they beautiful! The images are so pretty and the layers show them off beautifully!
ReplyDeleteI won't tell the Procrastinators Club about your 'head start' on the Christmas season!! They would never get around to demoting you anyway!!
Good for you making a head start, I really really should do this, but worry I would not get that adrenaline rush in December when I have to a make all my cards lol! just kidding!
