Well here I am trying to do my first post on my "new look" blog. Fingers crossed that everything works as it should.
As I warned you I am going to be heavily into Christmas now .. .. but I will try and post some non-Christmas creations too .. .. just to break up the boredom for you LOL!!!
Personally I never tire of making Christmas cards .. .. I love making them .. .. and it has been great to get all my Christmas stash out. A bit like having a whole new set of toys to play with.
So here is today's creation
and the close up
This used:
Image: Penny Black "4008J" Overdressed Duck
Snowflake Background: "J75" Great Impressions
Sentiment: Hobby Art Clear: "CS009D" Christmas Greetings
Backing Paper: Flower Soft "Vintage Papers"
Martha Stewart Punch: Traditional Scallop
Josy Rose: Nail Heads
Ranger: Embossing Tinsel "Bridal"
Cuttlebug Snowflake Die
ProMarkers
Glossy Accents
Glamour Dust
Gem and Ribbon from the Stash Box
I used the Rangers Embossing Tinsel to heat emboss the snowflakes on the scalloped card - you can see this best on the close up photograph I think.
Thank you for all your lovely messages yesterday on my new look blog .. .. I really enjoyed making it look different once I "got brave".
When I did my first change though I have to admit I did close my eyes as I pressed the "Save Changes to Blogger" button .. .. and then peeped with just one eye!!! LOL!!! What am I like!!
Love

Hi Jules
First things first, I love the new look blog. You're very brave, it always terrifies me to try something new with my blog!!! but this looks great.
I don't stop by for a couple of days and I always find I've missed some goodies. I love the grasses, that's a stunning card and I can see you've got the festive mood well and good. These are just beautiful. My stock pile is beginning to grow now too!!
