Simple Kraft Christmas card

 


Good Monday Morning Ladies, 

Welcome to the start of a new week, is it really Christmas next week????

We are having a lovely weekend away,  the Tropical/Rainforest Biome was fascinating, the highlight of yesterday was meeting Lilian & Roger, it was just like meeting a very dear friend,  the time we were there just flew by.  I am already looking forward to the next time x

Today's card I made following a Tracey Evans tutorial on YouTube.  I stamped the poinsettia onto kraft card and embossed it, then added postage stamp stencil and added a light blend of white pigment ink then traced around the stencil with white pen. I used Prismacolor pencils to colour the poinsettia.  I added some splatters,  stamped the sentiment and added the bird. 

We are off to walk along beach today ( weather permitting) and then we go to see Christmas lights at Eden. 

I hope you have a great start to your week,

Love and hugs, 

Sandra xxx

    Beautiful card.
    Lovely to hear that you and Paul have a nice trip and of course to meet our Lilian and her husband. Love to see some photos, hope you remember to take some....
    Didn't do too much after coming back from the shops this afternoon . Only started a smaller Xmas crystal work while watching Xmas movies, very relaxing 😊
    Hope you all are ok, sending an extra hug for you Sue and hopefully you feel better soon. Many hugs to you all, Maria xxx

  5. Hello all, well we certainly had torrential rain through the night and early this morning.
    It was lovely meeting Sandra and Paul last night. We had a lovely chatty evening.
    Great cards over the last couple of days. Finished all my cards now, just have to get them posted, which is rather costly this year.
    Goodnight all . Lilian
