Ho, Ho, Ho!!!

Hello dear!

This is my last post this year and last post for Love to Craft & Create.

I remember the day when I received a message from Monika asking if I would like to join her DT.

I thought OMG someone noticed and like my creative work. Wonderful!

Yes, and that was a wonderful time with Monika as a boss and you all as an audience.

Thank you for being here and all warm words in my direction!

So the time has come, my last inspiration for you.

Christmas time is close, so my last Christmas Card for you.

Made from beautiful papers from Craft & You Design - Christmas Story. 

I have used as well laser cut chipboards from 

Wycinanka - Christmas Tree, Lacy Christmas Star and LET IT SNOW Polaroid Frame.

I would like to wish you all a Merry Christmas, full of joy and love.
Have a wonderful New Year's  Eve Party and all the best in New Year 2018!
Love you!!!

Christmas Eve Card / Kartka Wigilijna

Hello everyone!

Henryka here. I am coming to you today, with another Christmas inspiration.

First I will show you my red frosty poinsettias flowers.

Made from white foamiran and coloured with Gallery Artists' Soft Oil Pastels.

For the centres, I have used flower plastic stamens - white.

On each ready flower, I have applied a small amount of gel medium and I have sprinkled a white glitter to make them look frosty.  

And here they are:

I couldn't resist myself to don't make a card using my fresh made poinsettias :)

A very easy and fast Christmas Eve Card.

Kept in real Christmas colours - green and red.

Papers are from Craft & You Design - Christmas Story.

Additionally, I have used laser cut chipboards from Scrapiniec - Holly Jolly - Borders.

I have added few white pomegranate apples and red, green, gold and silver sequins.

On the end, I have attached a sentiment - Christmas Eve.

Hope you like my Christmas inspiration. Thank you for a visit. Have a good weekend! Henryka

Merry Christmas Card

Good morning!

I have for you today a Christmas Card. 

I have made it in blue shades with a white and frosty look.

I have used papers from Galeria Papieru - As if in a dream.

You could say, that paper collection is not suitable for Christmas projects. 

But, I have chosen from it papers and I have made a Christmas card. 

And what do you think? 

Is it nice?

In the centre of my card I have created a wreath from white sisal, white gauze and laser cut chipboards from Scrapiniec - Holly Jolly - Borders. I have applied some gel medium and different size art stones on it, then whiten it with white gesso. 

I have attached some Christmas decorations, foamiran poinsettia flower made from white foamiran and coloured with Gallery Artists' Soft Oil Pastel. For the centre of poinsettia, I have used white berries.

The whole composition is whitened with white gesso and sprinkled with glitter to make a frosty look.

Have a good weekend! Kisses! Henryka

Christmas in purples

Hello!

How are you today? Ready for some crafting?

I would like to refresh your memory :) Do you remember that beautiful paper collection from UHK Gallery - Provence?

 I know, this collection is perfect for fresh and summer projects, but not only...

I have made from it Christmas card! What do you think? 

I love purple so why cannot use it in Christmas projects!

Combination of white and purple with an addition of purple shades foamiran poinsettias for me is perfect. 

Poinsettias made from white foamiran and coloured with Gallery Artists' Soft Oil Pastels. 

Additionally, laser cut chipboards from Scrapiniec - Mon MERRY Cheri - Big Wreath Set and white cotton lace. 

My poinsettias are accompanied by leaves from Craft Passion - Holly with Fruits.

The whole composition whitened with white gesso and sprinkle with a white glitter of different grade.

Thank you for your visit today.

I would like to also remind you about ongoing PROMOTION:

Don't miss it!!!

Have a good Saturday!

Christmas Wreath / Świąteczny Wianek

Hello!

Do you remember my foamiran frosty poinsettias from last week?

I have promised to you that I am going to make something with them. And I did!

My Christmas Wreath.

This is my first decoration for Chrismas made this year.

How you like it?

I have used all my frosty poinsettias and I have attached them with hot glue in one place. 

I have added some small cones, white sisal, polystyrene balls and stars. 

On the end, I have made a ribbon from white cotton lace 

and I have attached it to my flowers composition.

Have a good day!

Frosty poinsettias / Mroźne poinsetie

Hello everyone!

How are your preparations for Christmas?

Mine not too bad :)

Slowly, slowly I am making some flowers.

Time for poinsettias.

I have done them in frosty style.

Two colours: blue and mint.

Silk foamiran coloured with Gallery Artists' Oil Soft Pastels.

Petals for poinsettias are cut with a metal die from Craft Passion. 

Assembled with hot glue gun. 

On each poinsettia, I have applied a small amount of gel medium with a small brush and

then I have deep each in white glitter. That gives a nice frosty look. 

For a centre of my poinsettias, I have used white stamens. 

A big choice of stamens you can find HERE.

They will be perfect for my Christmas projects!

If you would like to learn how to make poinsettias from foamiran, you can check my tutorial from last year here:

That is all for today. 

Next week I will show you what I have made with my frosty flowers.

Have a good day.
