Waiting for Christmas...

Hi there, this is Titbelsoeur today !
I love to use books for home deco, especially for Christmas. Do you remember my Nativity scene in a book from last year (here) ?

Here is a foretaste : little card, season's greetings from Christmas Greetings # 1 on a pinecone :

Then I divided my book on 3 thirds, stamped a Best wishes quote from the same Christmas Greetings # 1  set and glued it with a Christmas image on the last page of the 1st third :

then glued a Girl by Fireplace  card on the first page on the 3rd third of the book :

the 2nd third was folded to make a pine tree, you will see how I did it here (tried to find a short video for you), and here it is :

And, as a bonus, here is my last experiment of the year : how to embellish basic baubles with Artistic Stamper's stamps ?
Just stamping some snowflakes with white acrylic paint ! I am not very gifted at such practicals, but I couldn't resist to give you the idea !

I hope my experiments will inspire you and I am looking forward to reading your comments !

Thank you for visiting, à tout bientôt !

Christmas Card

Hello Everyone,

 I made Christmas card today!!

I've some close view photos to share with you

I stamped Santa image from Artistic stamper Victorian Christmas plate #1 with Coffee Archival ink on diecut frame. I used barn door and vintage photo distress inks to color the edges of frame.

.
Sentiment stamp is from Christmas Greetings plate # 1

I made a card with red craft paper from Tim Holtz Kraft-core shattered collection. Distressed edges with distressing tool, we can see Kraft color paper and it gives grungy look!!
I also applied barn door distress ink at the edge .
Design papers which I've used here are from Graphic 45 Twas the Night Before Christmas collection.

 I made Poinsettia with same red kraft core paper and Cheery Lyn Poinsettia die. I've used golden beads for the center of flowers.
At the corner, you will find golden Jingle bells !!

Hope you liked the card!!
