chalkboard gift tags and Seamus

Hello!

I'm so running behind this year...I just got back from Christmas shopping! Yes you read that right! It's just been a never ending cycle of flu, colds, Adrian in the hospital and now Jakov and Mia have ear infections (took them to the doctor's last night!)...anyways I mentioned these chalkboard gift tags I made below...I just used my white gel pen and some white ink to distress it to make it look like chalkboard. For the Christmas tree I just doodled it. The snowman is from a set I designed for the German company Efco. I just stamped it with white ink (or embossing ink if you don't have white) and traced over it with my pen. So if you can't draw or doodle you can use your stamps....just make sure it's not a very intricate design because it will be difficult and a bit messy when you trace over the lines with the white gel pen. 






Here's a card I made this morning using my Seamus stamp set and a SRM sticker. I coloured with my Graph'it markers.


I will announce the winners of both my giveaways tomorrow.

shaker card

Hello!

Continuing with my red-white chalkboard art Christmas paper crafts I'm sharing my shaker card. Jennifer McGuire has a great video with awesome tips on making shaker cards. 




I used my Stripes and Dots and Warm Wishes stamp sets to create these cards. The pattern on the red card doesn't shop up nicely in the photos but in real life it looks gorgeous! :)



I heat embossed the sentiment with white embossing powder.





I just LOVE red and white stripes for Christmas...did I already mention that! ;)







Have a great day!

december

Hello!

I'm getting together with some of my crafty friends soon and to get some ideas on some Christmas projects we can can do I turned to Pinterest and found this pin which has all my favourite Christmas elements - red and white colour combo and chalkboard art.
  
I love this red and white stripe pattern...reminds me of candy canes!! 




I used my Stripes and Dots stamp set to create my stripe pattern and my Warm Wishes (which is on sale....50% off people!!) to create my chalk board image. I heat embossed the snowman with white embossing powder and distressed with some white ink.


I added a SRM sticker (December).


Have a great day!

christmas cheer

Hello!

If you follow me on instagram you would have seen this snowman I doodled on a piece of black scrap paper....I used my white gel pen...I thought it would be a shame not to make a card with it....and we will be adding it as a digi to our shop hopefully by tomorrow (too late to make it into a clear stamp). I also used the stripes from our Random Patterns stamp set, I used red ink on cream cardstock (see it...the right upper corner). I also used some SRM stickers.




Have a great day! xo

Have a great day!! And don't forget about our FREE SHIPPING worldwide that's going on...it ends this Friday! xo
