And Then There Were Two...

.... more sleeps 'till Christmas!

Hi, it's Sue with my second piece for Christmas.

Lots of Crazies, Tim Holtz and Stickles - what more could you ask for! There are more details and photographs over on my blog.  A very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you all, and see you again in the new year with lots more fab challenges xx

4 more sleeps

Hello it's Jane here with some more Christmas inspiration. You may remember my first card showed a very white on white Christmas card. I have used the same stamp, but created a very different card today. There are just 4 more sleeps until the Big Day but you still have until 31 December to enter our Christmas challenge.

I have a step by step and some additional photos over on my blog here. Do pop over where a  mince pie  warm welcome awaits you 😄 I would also like to take this opportunity to wish you all a very Merry Christmas. Thank you for supporting our challenges this year and for the kind comments you take the time to leave. 

See you in 2017!

Happy Christmas

As you know the Country View Crafts theme this month is, unsurprisingly, Christmas! For my second project this month I made a page in one of my small journals. I started by painting the page with blue paint and then stamping on some holly leaves. I then coloured them in. The 'before' picture is below! I then added a black stencilled border to the bottom to act as a shelf and then added six parcels to sit on it!  little banner stamped with one of Emma Godfrey's sentiment stamps finished it off. I think you could use this as a card or tag for a present - don't you?!

Thank you, as always, for popping by

Christmas tree

Hazel

As we hurtle through December I am pleased to present Darcy's layered tree. If you would like to see how I created it then please visit my blog.

Red and Green...

Hello crafters!

This is Craftyfield back today for a 2nd Christmas card, very traditional, both in colours and motifs.

 

Traditional, yes, but not boring.... You will definitely need to come by my blog to see the whole card as well as how I made it! Don't worry, it is a lot easier to make than it looks...

CAS Christmas Card

Hello all, it´s Evelyn here today.

Are you like me? Always a little late with getting your Christmas cards ready?

I made a CAS card - quick and easy but elegant.

If you need more than one card, you even could produce a series of them!

If you want to see how I made this, please visit my blog, there you´ll find a video tutorial of this card.

Thank you for visiting and have a good time!

Christmas card with sleigh and deer

Monika

It's December 5th! A big day for the Hungarian kids, Saint Nicholas (Mikulás) will come tonight in his deer pulled sleigh to put tiny presents and candies to their shiny boots! So I have brought you a greeting card with Tim's sleigh and prancing deer. On my blog you can have some more details about the card!

December 2016 - Christmas

Welcome everyone to our last challenge for 2016 with the title

CHRISTMAS

chosen by the lovely Debs

Deb

Ooh the month of parties and celebrations! Christmas always makes me feel nostalgic and so inspired, I created this Vintage Snow Globe. Come and see the different layers over on my blog. 

Hugs Debsxx 

Sue

Good morning, it's December, so the countdown to Christmas starts now! Unfortunately I'm still in mid June so waaaay behind. I need cards, and quickly, so it's out with the Tim Holtz stamps and die sets.

There are lots more pictures over on my blog and it would be great if you could visit x

Craftyfield

You could be forgiven to think I I'm totally confused and still working to our previous Stars theme... but no I'm definitely thinking Christmas and my idea was really about Silent night... just WITHOUT the snow since, in England, white Christmases are few and far between! Come and see my how I made this card on my blog!

Monika

I have brought you a paper banner for Christmas because I love to make home decorations and I love banners. On my blog you will find two Christmas banners with two different purples, with two different texts (NOEL-CHRISTMAS) and with two different techniques. So if you want to know more, please hop on my blog! Thank you!

Jennie

And the countdown begins! I thought I would make an Advent Calendar Clock for my two grandchildren and had great fun using up lots of scraps of favourite papers from the last few years. It is not an easy project to photograph as it is to hang on the wall in their Play Room but do please join me over on my blog for more details and some close up photographs of the individual elements.

Jane

Hooray the real countdown to Christmas starts today. I have my list written and I'm checking it twice. I made a snowy card for today's Christmas challenge as I am sure we all secretly wish for a White Christmas; there is something magical about snow isn't there.

If you would like to see how my snowy scene was created please pop over to my blog here

where a very warm welcome awaits you. 

Bye for now,

Hazel

Getting really excited now as we launch our Country View Crafts December theme.

I have chosen a new embossing folder and lots of glitter.

To find the details, please visit my blog. 

Corrie

I am not all that keen on Christmas and probably look a bit like this dog when the day arrives...lol

I do love these Crazy Dogs though and paired with this sentiment I think it makes a funny scene.. I filmed the process of making this page. You find the link for the video on my blog HERE.

I will be back later in the month with more inspiration.. 

Merry Christmas ! 

Gabrielle

I love Christmas and the opportunity to dust off my seasonal stamps! These sketchy stamps from Tim Holtz seemed particularly under used so it was lovely to get them inky! Gabrielle x

Happy Holidays! Rachel x

Brenda

Christmas is my most favourite time of the year and I love all the hype and buildup to the big day, but it is a time for family and friends, for gatherings and for reflecting on what Christmas really means. 

To celebrate the start of advent and the time for preparations and fun I have made a vintage style mosaic easel card, Tim Holtz style. Hope you like it, if you do you can see more photos and designs over at Bumblebees and Butterflies. 

Enjoy your own preparations for the big day. xxx
