Hello! I thought I would share my Christmas and holiday cards from this month's Papertrey Ink release tonight and a couple of non-seasonal pieces tomorrow. First up is Dawn's On Ice set--aren't these skates just darling? I used a 1/16" hole punch to punch holes for some cotton embroidery thread-took a few minutes, but it was worth it! The little pom-poms are cut from some cotton lace that I had on hand. Paper is PTI's new Christmas Prints.
Next is Alli's Holiday Sparkle set--what a fun concept! I used her little deer, colored with Copic markers, and added a red rhinestone heart nose and black pearl eyes. Paper is last year's PTI Christmas paper, Rustic Snowflakes.
Becky's Merry Little Christmas set is simply sweet. I love the graceful curve of that branch that the star hangs on. I used Christmas Red Stickles on the holly berries, and a glue pen and Prisma Glitter on the star.
What about Nichole and Mish's collaboration in the Friendship Jar Holiday Fillers set? I adore the jar sets, and I thought that this little snowman was fabulous!
Here are the Copic markers that I colored the snowman in a jar with.
I must have been channeling Heather, a.k.a."Pinefeather" here--the Holly Jolly set was just begging to be used with Kraft cardstock! For the holly berries I used red glitter.
I have a house full of company now, but I'll try to post my non-seasonal pieces tomorrow some time. We're off in the morning to take twin three-year olds, a two-year old, and my ten-year old to an alpaca farm to see the new cria, and maybe to the apple orchard after that. Sounds like a great photo op day, doesn't it? Thanks for stopping by!
