FUNKY HAND MEETS ELLA BLUE

Hi Everyone

I hope your Saturday has been good.

I have been working on some orders today but so I had something to share I have made a quick and easy one using some of the leftovers that were lying around from my make of yesterday.

Yesterday was the first time I had used my "Ella Blue" papers and whilst using them they reminded me of some of the papers on the Funky Hand CD "Now That's Funky" .. .. .. and a quick investigation confirmed that I am not losing my memory .. .. the dotty paper behind my tree is from this CD .. .. doesn't it match just perfectly with the Ella Blue papers?

I will have to make a card similar to the one I made yesterday .. .. but using the Funky Hand CD and compare.  I know the patterns won't be identical but the colours will be similar and I think they are lovely for Christmas cards in "non-traditional" colours.

Anyway, here is my "left-overs" creation.  It isn't very often that scrap papers don't even make their way into the huge scrap box LOL!!!



This used:  

Backing Papers:  GCD Studios "Ella Blue"

Backing Papers:  Funky hand CD "Now That's Funky"
Image:  Woodware Clear Stamps "JGCL529" Tipsy Tree

Josy Rose:  Nail Heads

Glamour Dust

I drew all around the paper pieced  tree image with a Quickie Glue Pen and then sprinkled on the compulsory Glamour Dust to give it a little sparkle .. .. .. you can't have a Christmas Card without some sparkle can you? LOL!!

Sorry my make is so simple .. .. but I love it anyway. 

Have a lovely evening everyone.

X-Factor for me tonight .. .. but well behind the scheduled time.  Hubby has gone to football and they have a late kick off (only just kicking off now) so a bit more crafty time for me with football on in the background and X-Factor later, later.

Thank you for all your lovely comments on my creation of yesterday.  I felt a bit guilty that so many of you said you would like to own a Cricut.  I bought mine a couple of years ago when a local craft shop reduced everything in their store to half price .. .. .. so my lovely hubby persuaded me that I needed to get one whilst there was such a good offer on.  I pretended I needed persuading .. but I didn't really LOL!!!

I don't have many cartridges for my machine  .. .. the ones that I do have I have managed to pick up either second hand or in sales (a bit like a lot of my stash really).

Love
