Advent Window 14 - Good Tidings

This is a two step stamp set which allows real depth of image,

and the photopolymer stamps allow easy alignment.

Even though I have only used two colours, when you stamp off an image (printing the inked image on scrap paper), the colour shade becomes lighter for your project image.

Stamp Set: Good Tidings

Ink: Basic Black, Old Olive and Cherry Cobbler

Card Stock: Whisper White, Cherry Cobbler, Merry Music DSP

Accessories: 1/4" Double Stitched Ribbon in Cherry Cobbler

Keep on Christmas Crafting, GenGen xxxx

Stamp set: Joy to the World

Ink: Night of Navy, Versa Ink and Silver Emboss

Card stock: Night of Navy and Whisper White

Accessories: Hometown Greetings Edgelits Dies

Keep on Christmas Crafting, and looking in the night sky ;-)

(Double) Advent Window 10 - Fun with Felt!

With the fabulous Quilted Christmas Suite,

are the fantastic

Stitched Felt Embellishments.

As fabulous as they are as card embellishments,

they also lend themselves to being made into

understated Christmas earrings

- hee hee hee!

At this time of year, the focus is on trees,

. . . and Stars ;-)

I've used the Quilted Christmas 6"x6"

Designer Series Paper as a background ;-)
