DS4J Christmas Challenge October

 

 This month we got a Sentiment Set to work with for the Christmas Challenge.

I used the lower sentiment of the two.

The card itself is white.

 I stamped two angels from Judikin's Rubberstamps using blue ink.

NOEL is a stamp set from I Brake For Stamps also there I used blue ink.

The DS4J sentiment I printed out with blue hext and layered on gold paper.

 That is then stuck on blue cardstock and I used peel offs to decorate.

Only two more images and it is Christmas!

Am so proud I managed to stick to the challenge this far and have cards already made 

instead of trying to make all in the end of the year.

I hope there will be a snowman next month.

Chicken Scratch bag

This Jester-bag I made using fine gingham material. 

I first embroidered the S using Chicken Scratch technique.

Then I sew the bag using the sewing machine.

I will use it to keep my tatting thread and work in.

DS4J Christmas Challenge September

This month challenge digi stamp is called Two-wit twooo.

I think the owls are so cute there in the tree.

You can find the image in the DS4J store:

I coloured the owls with pencils and made the tree trunk a bit longer. 

Used a sticker for Merry Christmas and dabbed blue grey chalk on using a sponge.

Punched snowflakes. Cut the edge with a fancy scissor.

That went on brown, red and embossed gold card stock. 

All put on the white basic card.

Cat peeking ......

This card is stitched with silk thread on brown card stock.

The cat is a deco image I printed out a few times.

Punched green scallop circle behind.
