Christmas Banner

I made another Banner for my dining room, which will be aqua and cream for Christmas I've enjoyed making the banners, I want one to put on the fireplace too, hopefully I'll get one made this week!

Tree Ornaments

This is my entry for The Paper Players challenge this week.

Working with the colours Cherry Cobbler, Very Vanilla and Gold. I've been making these tree ornaments to give out rather than cards this year.

I used a victorian image of a girl holding a Christmas tree, and used red and green Flower soft for the foliage, then added some rhinestones for sparkle.

The 'ornaments' across the left side are Paper Artsy stamps on shrink plastic, then strung on red thread. I punched leaves from green paper and added pearls to them.

Then framed the heart with cream and gold trimming, and added a red tassel and red ribbon for hanging

I'm quite pleased how it turned out..maybe another keeper!

The Paper Players Challenge

This is a Christmas tree ornament I made for a friend. I used Wizard of Oz stamps as her dog looks just like Toto
Thought I'd enter in a challenge too, as their theme is:

Create something Christmas (or holiday) with non-holiday stamps or colors!

Christmas Fairy

This is a soft sculpt Christmas ornament in red and cream. Her faetures are painted in acrylics, and her eyes and lips are glazed and glittered, she's about 7 inches tallI thought I'd enter her into The One Stop Craft Challenge which is Christmas Fairies!

Just finished making a Christmas Banner. I'm way behind with all things Christmas...again.
