A Scandi Christmas at SPA

 My postcard for Aimeslee's theme over at Sunday Postcard Art

I  had a set of stamps,once again given to me, I never turn stamps away, you never know when they will come in useful, just as this set has.

I stamped several Scandie images, originally to make it look like a hanging ornament, but I didn't like it, so created another postcard!

The postcard I kept white, using red archival ink for the images, inked the edges of the postcard then added 2 wooden buttons.

Sorry for the greyish colour, I took several photos, but the lighting in dull weather isn't good.

Thank you to all that drop by..xx

Oh Christmas Tree

 Just popping in to share my last Tag for Pinky's Christmas theme over at Tag Tuesday

This time I have used water colour card and some Twinkling H2o's to create a Christmas tree.

I just love how the colours merged in to one another and the shimmer they give.

I was undecided regarding the speckles, but then thought the tag just needed that something extra, so flicked the paint in each colour over the whole tag.

Coming to the end now of Pinkys challenge, so if you want to join in with this theme, you have until monday midnight to add your tag.

The challenge is here Tag Tuesday 

Another Gift Tag

 Morning, I'm back again with another Christmas Tag, following Pinky's theme over at Tag Tuesday 

This time I have used a stamp from a set by Artistic Outpost, I really can't think how long I have had it, it's certainly years old.The fir cone and sentiment are from random stamps in my stash.

There are still a few days left if you want to play along with Pinky's Christmas theme, any medium welcome, but your entry must be a Tag.

Christmas at Tag Tuesday

 Our lovely Pinky is hosting her theme over at Tag Tuesday.

She has chosen Christmas as her theme, so we hope to see lots of entries.

Any medium is acceptable, but it has to be a tag.

I have made a few tags and will post them over the next few days.

Here is my first Tag...

 I added stickles to the berries to give them a bit of sparkle, but it really didn't show up to well.

Do pop along and join us if you can, always lovely to see new faces.

You can find us here at Tag Tuesday

Reindeer at SPA

Over at Sunday Postcard Art there are Reindeer.

Anne is hosting her theme, so if you like creating postcards, ( they must be 6"x 4", but you can use any medium,) do pop over and play along.

All the stamps except the fence are freebies from a friend, she buys a lot of craft magazines and very often passes the stamps on to me if she isn't going to use them. 

Here is my Reindeer postcard for Anne''s challenge, the lighting wasn't great for photos today.

Coloured using a combination of water colour paints, brush pens, posca pen for the falling snow. Added  glitter for the mountains, trees and the bottom of the fence on the tufts of grass.

Thank you for dropping by today xx

Not the brightest photos, the weather is just so gray and everything looks dull, only good thing is this weather doesn't show up the dust on the furniture! lol.
