Nordic Christmas. . . . . . . .

Good morning everyone. Hope all is ok with you.

Been an up and down few days here but I just try and get on with things. Also, my friend's Dad has declined quite markedly so I'm trying to support her as best as I can. Poor thing is exhausted and not sleeping very well with the worry of it all.

Now, today's card is another from John's last shows featuring his latest stamp releases.

Its just John's kind of thing so he has already asked for this as his Christmas card for this year lol!!!

Ingredients

White and red card

John Next Door Festive Silhouette stamp set

John Next Door Christmas Scene stamp set

John Next Door Christmas Textures stamp set

Versamark

White detail embossing powder

It was a bit time consuming but made easier by using the Press To Impress. It really is a useful addition to my craft tools.

I hope the gals who joined John up at Swainby over the weekend had a great time and came away with new tips and techniques. I send best wishes to the ladies who couldn't make it as they were not too well.

We are in the process of sorting another workshop at Ansty for February so watch this space.

That's it for today folks as Mr D doesn't like me spending too long on the laptop when I'm not feeling great but Blogger doesn't like the tablet.

He's not thrilled that I was staying up until stupid o'clock last night to watch the Brazilian GP highlights.

When I started up my website, I registered for tax with HMRC so I was thinking of offering help to Lewis Hamilton on how to pay your taxes...........😉😉😉

Hope this week is kind to you all.

Stagnificent Silhouettes. . . . . .John Next Door is Back

Good morning one and all. 

This morning heralds the launch of John Next Door's latest goodies to add to his already fantastic range of products.

John is on Hochanda today at 8am and 12pm showcasing these new products.

Needless to say, the new stamps and media plates are now available on my website too, along with some other new products (click on the link on the sidebar to be taken to the website). If you order before 3pm, these new beauties could be in your craft room by tomorrow!

Now, I was lucky enough to get to play with the stamps and made John some samples for his shows. This is a brilliant set and it made me get all inky again lol!!!

Ingredients

White card

Blue textured shimmer card

John Next Door Festive Silhouettes stamp set (available on my website)

Variety of Izink inks (available on my website)

I tried to make the sky a little Northern Light-ish. A simple card, I know, but hopefully effective.

Hope you manage to see the shows as I am sure that John will have some interesting cards and techniques to share.

As John would say, enjoy!
