Next is my entry for the December Gina K Monthly Mix. I chose emboss resist, square, vellum from the Tic Tac Toe board.
As you've probably guessed, I have a lot of Christmas stamps. I keep telling myself I don't need more, but just couldn't resist the gorgeous GK Festive Flowers. I brushed DO worn lipstick over the gold embossed image. The sentiment from the set was gold embossed on a square of vellum & I added worn lipstick on the back. Thought I'd add gold embellishments to the flower centers, but changed my mind when I tried the pink gems--so pretty! I'm also entering The Flower Challenge.
I was lucky enough to win a package of PFS goodies a year ago from Ivana & I'm slowly letting myself use them--haha! Actually, I love the PFS Layered Wreath & Classic Holiday Words so much I got them.
My card for PFS December Challenge uses a Soft Stone cardstock square with dots of silver Stickles & a white square card. I love the embellishments Ivana included in my prize package.
I used the tiny oval gem on the bow & a few pink transluscent sequins on the wreath. I'm also entering SSS Monday.
The Poppystamps December challenge is Anything But a Card. I decided to make a tag to go with goodies for my sweet neighbors who have 2 little kids.
Poppystamps Tunnel Tag was die cut from a scrap of red cardstock & embossed with a TH poinsettia embossing folder that also has little holly leaves. The Memory Box Holly Ornament was die cut from white cardstock & green glitter fun foam. The fun foam really sparkles in person, so think the kiddos will like that. Guess I better get busy & make the goodies now! I'm also entering DCD. Edited to add: also entering Let's Squash It.
Wishing all of you a healthy, peaceful Christmas. Sad not to be with family, but much sadder not to have any more holidays together because people get sick & die. Wonderful to see people being given a Covid vaccine. Finally there's hope for a better 2021.
Thanks so much for taking time to stop by. If your blog address is in your profile or comment,

ReplyDeleteGorgeous cards and tag Greta. I am so happy to see you have joined us at Die Cut Divas this month with your tag.
ReplyDeleteThe camels may be among the first of your stamps bought, but they look so fresh and 'on trend'. I wouldn't have been able to resist those gorgeous flowers either - so elegant! The wreath is pretty and I'm sure your neighbours will love the sparkly tag. I hope your Christmas is enjoyable, even though you are not able to gather. I feel so sorry for Americans in this horrid pandemic. You are really doing it tough! It's been lovely chatting all year Greta. Keep well. x
ReplyDeleteBrilliant and beautiful set of cards Greta, each have their wonderful qualities.
ReplyDeleteWe are down the line of vaccine, the oldies and vulnerable are getting it first in the UK. As we are only in our 70's I expect it will be at least a few weeks before being called for it. Keep safe
Wishing you a Very Happy Christmas, whatever goes on.
