More craft fair makes

 

Hello all, I have got some more Christmas craft fair makes to show you.  Thought I would make a start while my daughter is at school so she doesn't keep pinching the marshmallows.  This time I have made some Snowman Soup.  I made the little sweetie pouch from a free download at Waltzing Mouse stamps which can be found HERE.  The papers I have used are from Pink Petticoat called fairy lights which I have used throughout this years cards and can be found on previous posts on my blog.

For my Snowman soap I have used a sachet of hot chocolate, two snowman chocolate lolly's and some marshmallow's, all bought from the local supermarket.

 

I have then made a little flag with Snowman soup written in French.  I just hope the school likes the idea!!

Dolly Pegs!!

 

I have been thinking about what else I can make for daughters school Christmas fair, then I thought dolly pegs!!!

I asked my mother in law whilst in England to pick some up for me as I couldn't find any in France and a big thank you to her as she went everywhere trying to find some.
 
So my idea was to make little angels.

I have covered my peg in glitter and added some organza material to make the skirt. I then used a friends die to make the wings from glitter card and added some embroidery thread for the hair.

I added some ribbon to hang the angel from the tree and a little gem to make it look like she is wearing a necklace.

I think they are really cute and really cheap to make.

Here is a picture of them hanging in my daughters pink tree which I said she could have for her room.

 

This project is for the challenge at Its all about the Vintage and you had to use glitter, I just hope that dolly pegs are classed as something from the past!!!

My Time Made Easy - Pretty Palette

I am feeling still very festive, the mince pies are safely stashed away in my cupboard but not sure for how long.

Its colour fun time over at My Time Made Easy and look at the gorgeous colour palette for the challenge:

When I saw these colours again I thought male Christmas so I decided to make a card for my daughter to give to her Daddy but it could be suitable for all.

I have used paper set called Candy Claus and I have printed the papers onto pearlescent paper.  The digi image can be found HERE which is called Mr Claus and I have coloured him in using promakers and glitter.  The sentiment is also from My Time Made Easy called Beautiful Baubles.  I have added some ribbon and stars to finish my card.

Come and get festive and join in the fun!!!!

Tic Tac Toe

Well I have started to feel all festive!  I am so excited for my In Laws to return from England with  our family's Christmas treats.  There are certain things I miss living in France and shop bought mince pies are one of them.  I am afraid they probably won't last till Christmas, oops!!

Anyway with Christmas in mind again (I Just love it) the challenge this week over at The Shabby Tea Room is tic tac toe.

Here is the table and I have chosen to use stitching (faux), gems and glitter:

and here is the beautiful photo for inspiration:

 

and my card

 

 

I have used backing papers from Pink Petticoat and the image is from Fresh Brewed Designs called Christmas Holly which I have coloured with promarkers and added glitter to her dress.

 

Then I have added some flowers and glittered stars to embellish my card.

Purple and Gold Festive Greetings

Here is another Christmas card this time I have used the colour challenge at CR84FN Color Challenge which I thought are so rich a luxurious.

 

 

The backing paper is from Pink Petticoat and the stamped image is from a set available at Annabelle Stamps.  I have used this stamp set a lot for some of my Christmas cards for this year as it seems it be so versatile and the stamp quality is brilliant.

 

 

 

 

The layout for the card is taken from the challenge at Cupcake Craft Challenge.

Sweet Shabby Christmas

I have finally got around to some crafting as my daughter is now back in school after two weeks off.  It won't be long until they are off again ready for Christmas.

Here is my card which was inspired by the beautiful challenge at The Shabby Tea Room.

Here is the photo inspiration and for the challenge you are asked to use the colours in the photo and use glitter.

 

 

 

I have used a digi stamp from Fresh Brewed Designs and the papers and sentiment are from Pink Petticoat.  The layout is taken from last weeks sketch over at Mojo Monday.  I have coloured my image using promarkers and added glitter to make it sparkle.  I love the girlie colours of this card so I might keep it for my daughter ready for Christmas.

My Time Made Easy - Pretty Palette

The time comes around some quickly for another fun colour challenge at My Time Made Easy.  I hope everyone had a safe and fun Halloween and didn't eat to many sweets!!

Here is this weeks Pretty Palette:

I saw these colours and thought I wonder if I can make a male card.  This is the one thing I have problems with.

So here is my card:

 

I have used the For Dad digital stamp set from My Time Made Easy.  I used the rosette and added a origami paper shirt.  I also used papers from my stash.  I have also added some ribbon and gems to finish the card and inked the edges of my paper in black.

 

 

I thought this card would be great for a birthday or Father's day even though its a bit early but I like to be prepared.
