Caran D'Ache

Well On Saturday I got some new craft goodies, I got Caran D'Ache Pastel pencils and Watercolour pencils in wooden boxes...and the colours are yummy.. I just couldn't resist...





I am no Artist but I do love adding colour to my projects...I haven't had a play with the watercolour pencils yet but I have had a play with the pastel pencils... I have never used them before these 2 cards were my first attempt at colouring with them.. I am really happy with the results and look forward to having lot's of fun using the Pastel pencils.

Christmas Card and Box

I made this card using dies and stamps from the Christina Collection, Merry Christmas die from Memory Box, some distress inks, gold ink and embossing powder, red ribbon and various card stock from my stash.I made the card after watching a YouTube tutorial, I altered a couple of minor things, like adding distress ink to the leaves, I used gold brads for the flower centres instead of stamens... etc.

Vintage themed Christmas cards

I made these 2 cards using a Hot Off the Press Vintage Christmas paper and stamp kit that came with a magazine that I had bought several years ago.
