Fröhliche Weihnachten und ein glückliches neues Jahr 2020!

Finally Friday! And the last day of school! The Christmas holidays are here … finally time to relax, drink tea and just being with my favourite people.

If you need more Christmas cards, we hope that the Daring Cardmakers can provide some inspiration:

Have a Very Crafty Christmas

 We'd love you to join in with us for just one more challenge from our seasonal calendar before we take our Christmas holiday!
 

It's another Anything Crafty challenge this week, and final theme this year is

Pretty Pastel Christmas

We don't often use them at Christmas so we would love to see any kind of craft project featuring Pretty Pastel shades

Cards, tags, bags, boxes, table decor.....any kind of craft project is good- just tone down the colours and go for pale and interesting this week!

To confess … using pastel colours is not such a huge challenge for me. Even at Christmas I prefer pastel colours to bright red and dark green. So here I used some Christmas papers and the stamp/die set you already know 😉.

Have a great countdown to Christmas! Try to enjoy and don’t worry

DC Christmas tree

Happy Friday, everyone! We’re halfway through advent time and Christmas is fast approaching …

Don’t worry. The Daring Cardmakers will give you some more inspiration for your last Christmas cards and projects.

Today it’s all about trees!

Any kind of craft project, not necessarily Christmas - but we need to see one 

or more trees featured please.

Hmmm… what should I say … I used the same die cut again and stamped some trees in different green/turqoise inks in the foreground. I also used Christmas paper with lots of trees on it.

(I already ordered some more Christmas products so that my blog will look a bit more varied next Christmas season!)

Next I immediatly used up the scraps and created another card from the „negatives“. This time the red dotted paper in the background and the Christmas tree paper as the element in the centre.

To make the snowflake more interessting I added dimension, another layer and some nuvo drops.

Here are the two twin cards next to each other:

DC December Elemental Inspiration

Hello, crafters! Happy St. Nicholas Day to everyone. I hope you all found some treats in your winter boots this morning … I found something great (new dies!) in my post box as well and can’t wait to try them out soon.

The Daring Cardmakers want to inspire you and brought you this elemental picture for December.

Pick at least three elements and use them on your card.

I used a tag, snowflakes and yarn. (And maybe I have to put deer on my wish list. They look awesome on any card)
