A bit of everything from the Holly Bright collection on these two cards – the background papers are from the 6″ pad, the greetings from the sheet of 12 x12 paper, and some collectables thrown in. I added some xmas type flowers and ribbon and bling to finish. The cardstock is from stampin up.Today i have been making bright summery cards, when I should be having a last push at the christmas cards, but christmas still seems a bit far away to me for some reason this year – I think it’s because I still have a couple of birthdays before then and I can’t think seriously about christmas until they are past….til tomorrow….

kaisercraft holly bright number 11
Number 11 in my Kaisercraft Holly bright paper series, and here I have used the 12 x 12 papers. the bird is from the collectables, and I just added a little ribbon bow and some kindyglitz to finish. So glad the working week is over for me – I have struggled this week with this coughy coldy thing,and hopefully a couple of days at home will knock it on the head once and for all! Til tomorrow….
Kaisercraft Holly Bright 9 and 10
Todays cards were made with Kaisercraft Holly Bright papers. I made these ones with the idea that you could enclose a gift voucher in them, so the front layer is peeled back and I used my Memory Keepers envelope maker to make a small envelope – I used the smallest size on the board for this.the greetings were cut out from a sheet of matching paper – this sheet is brilliant – it has 36 greeting on it so great value.The cards didn’t need any more in the way of decoration so I just added a little bling.
Prima Anna Marie number 6
This is the final card in my Prima Anna Marie series. I used the papers along with one of the matching tags ( which I stamped with a stampin up sentiment stamp) a piece of the chipboard and I fussy cut some of the flowers from another piece of the paper, and layered them up on the side.tomorrow christmas cards! Til tomorrow….
Prima Anna Marie number 5
Prima Anna marie paper, tags and stickers, with some bling strips and a stampin Up sentiment. What I like about this paper is that it is all all different but co-ordinates perfectly.Each of the cards so far look so different but the colours all fit together. one more in this group, and then we will return to some christmas cards! til tomorrow….
Prima Anna Marie number 4
Another favourite sketch with this card – prima Anna marie paper,and a lovely big ribbon bow, resin flower, prima bling and an assortment of leaf punches and dies. I rounded the right hand corners on all layers. a lesson taught today, and more lesson prep this afternoon. Back to work tomorrow, if my voice holds out! Til tomorrow….
Prima Anna Marie number 3
Here is Prima Anna Marie paper, the top layer shaped into a large banner ( I like this sketch and use it alot) with a tag which I stamped layered on top, and a ribbon bow and resin flower added. I have been in the craft room making more christmas cards, have nearly used all my kaisercraft St Nicholas paper- so pleased with myself! til tomorrow….
graphic 45 12 days of christmas number 10
Here it is, the last in my graphic 45 12 days of christmas series. I think I have combined everything on this one – layering, fussy cutting, lace and chipboard pieces.I have loved using this paper, still have some left, but today I have been working on more christmas cards using up my kaisercraft paper. I must concentrate on using up some older papers, as I have run out of room to buy more so there may be some posts where we revisit some old favourites! Til tomorrow….
graphic 45 12 days of christmas number 9
For this christmas card I used the 8 x8 pad from Graphic 45 – 12 days of christmas, and the matching chipboard pieces. Quite a bit of fussy cutting and some layering on this one!a bit of kindyglitz to finish, and no ribbon for a bit of a change…one more in this series, and then we will move on to something else.I have been busy with house work today, but I am off now to the craft room for a couple of hours – some lessons to set up for january, seems so far away but will be with us before we know it.Til tomorrow…
