Hi Everyone
Happy Saturday .. .. and happy weekend.
Another scheduled post from me today as I try to get ahead of the game in my crafty little world.
In my previous post I shared with you some of my makes from the current issue of Quick Cards Made Easy .. .. with a promise of sharing separately another commission I worked on.
Well, never being one to break a promise .. .. here we go with my third commission.
This commission was to use the free gift .. .. and boy did I have fun! I loved the gift so much and am still using it now! What a great freebie!!
It is actually 9 craft items in one collection and comprises of four brilliant sentiment stamps, a Santa and his reindeer sleigh stamp, a star embossing folder .. .. and treat of treats a fabby stencil.
This is how it all looks when it is shiny and new and still in the packet:
You can't actually see the stencil too well in the packaging but this is how it starts to look when you have had hours and hours of fun with it LOL!!
I have inked through it, chalked through it, embossed through it, drawn round sections and either coloured or cut those sections out, I flipped it over so the houses and trees ran in different directions .. .. .. and I am sure there is still much more I have yet to discover.
This won't be leaving my desk for a long time yet that's for sure.
Here are a few of the cards I made for the magazine .. .. .. but I shall be making many more for my own Christmas stock box!!
There are instruction on how to make another of my cards using the gift here.
So there we go. Free gift fun!!
Hopefully another scheduled post that will make an appearance.
I should probably schedule more to be honest.
My apologies for the lack of blog visiting at the moment. I will catch up with your lovely blogs eventually I promise.
Enjoy your weekend.
