I prepared some Chocolate Christmas Cards. This is a great way to send a card and a Christmas gift in one. I decortated them with Pretti Flori Christmas Flowers and Christmas Berry Spray.
Thank you for stopping by.
Have a nice Thursday :)

I know I know, Christmas is over already!! But I hope you don't mind me sharing one more Christmas card with you. I promise it'll be my last one of this year (an easy promise since it's December 31st).
The image on the card is Heart by Alicia's Cute Shop. Maybe not your first thought for a Christmas card but I think she works perfectly in traditional Christmas colors and I love her big eyes.
A close up of the image, as always colored with Copic Markers and 3D paper pieced for extra dimension.
A close up of the pretty Wild Orchid Crafts embellishments :). I used a variety of different flowers but love how they look together. I only used a little bit of the Pearl Flourish (links to the products are all below this post) but love the look and this way one Flourish will decorate several projects.
This is my last post before the new year I want to wish all of you the most AMAZING 2015, make it the best year yet and stay safe if you are going to do fireworks please!!! You'll need those hands to craft!!
Christmas is almost here! Hope you are in to another Christmas card?
I made this card using Angel Maya with Star by Whiff of Joy. White, blue and gold were the colors I wanted to use, maybe not your first choice of Christmas colors but with the gorgeous little Angel I wanted the pure of the white and the blue and added the gold for the festive feel.
A close up of the image with a bit of pretty frantage around it, stitches by hand and pretty plantinum stickles.
And a close up of some of the embellishments. The Wild Orchid Crafts Trellis Roses are absolutely my favorite flowers, they'll make any card or project shine. And the berries from the Gold Christmas Berry Spray were the perfect festive touch to these gorgeous flowers.
I hope you have all your Christmas shopping and stuff done by now! I have one more post on the last day of the year so I'm not going to wish you guys a happy new year yet but I do wish all of you a very warm and loving Christmas, hope you all get to spend it with the people you hold closest to your hearts!
Last month I entered a Secret Santa swap on a Facebook page. The idea is that you get a name and address to whom you send a card and some goodies if you want and somebody else gets your name and address and makes and sends something to you. This is the card I made for the person who's name I drew.
A close up of Jinkles, as always colored with Copic Markers and 3D paper pieced. I decided Jinkles needed bright red hair and so the embellishments had to have red as well. And since I thought the image was a bit bright with the bright red and the bright green I decided to go for white as well in the embellishments to "calm" the card a bit down.
A close up of the pretty flowers and berries that I used from Wild Orchid Crafts. With my card I enclosed a bag of Wild Orchid Crafts flowers and a bunch of the berries and pine cone, a girl can never have to much pretty WOC flowers right?
Hope you like my card and glad to say that after it finally arrived the person who received it liked it as well.

Today I'd like to show you another Christmas card I made. I think this is the second time ever I used my hexagon dies but I wanted to try something new.
The base of the card is just kraft cardstock, with stitches by hand around the edges. I smeared a bit embossing ink on one side of an embossing folder and pressed that on two edges of the cardstock, sprinkled white embossing powder on and heat embossed that. I wanted to get this not perfect pattern.
The image that I used is the newly released Sarah by Wee Stamps (available as a rubber stamp through Whimsy Stamps). I colored her with Copic Markers and 3D paper pieced her.
For the embellishments I used gorgeous red Trellis roses, a white open rose, pretty red hip rosebuds and one red Christmas berry spray with pine cones (you'll find links below). I still have berries and a cone left so what you see on this card is about 2/3rd of one spray.
I hope you like my new Christmas card. Not that much time until the Christmas cards need to be send of so hope you get some time to do some crafting of your own!
A while back Wild Orchid Crafts introduced various gorgeous Christmas berry sprays and my favorite right away was the one with red Christmas Berries, pine cones and holly leaves. Today I'd like to share a card that I made with just one of these gorgeous sprays.
The image is by Lili of the Valley and is called Pile of Presents. The paper that I used are old ones by Basic Grey and I thought they matched the spray perfectly.
A close up of the image. I colored the image again to match the pretty spray and the gorgeous red open roses.
And a close up of the berries, leaves and pine cones. As I mentioned I only used one of these sprays, I even have some berries
left. I thought I'd explain how I used the spray. I removed the tape
with which the leaves, berries and pine cones are attached to each
other, cut of a bit of the excess stamens and slipped the stamens under
the image that I glued on the card base with thick 3D glue (the glue was
of course still wet when I did this). With a little syringe I added a
bit more glue underneath the pine cones and the berries but I'm pretty
sure they would have stuck in place without that drop of glue ones the
3D glue had completely dried.
I hope you like my Christmas card and love these gorgeous sprays as much as I do. Have a great day everybody!
I'm back with my first Christmas card of this year. I know it feels like we have ages until Christmas but it's just a little over twenty weeks, so if you create about one card a week like I do (some weeks more and some weeks less) then to have a couple to send to your closest friends and family it's just about time you get started :).
The stamp that I used is from Sugar Nellie and she's called Wish Upon a Star. I have it in rubber and had never used it before but it's now only available as a digi HERE.
A close up of the Wish Upon a Star image, as always colored with Copic Markers and 3D paper pieced.
And a close up of the pretty Wild Orchid Crafts flowers. I used some of the new products that are in store, I LOVE the new Magnolia's and Apple Blossoms so HAD to use them, the large ivory and turquoise flowers are the Magnolia's and I've used the blueish and ivory Apple Blossoms as well, these are all from te mixed packages.
Hope you like my first Christmas card of the year even though temperatures outside probably don't give you any Christmas fibes yet :). See you back soon!
