Morning everyone,

Today we have one in blue!  I started off with a Go kreate die to get the shape and the card sort of materialised from there.

The image is created by Sylvia Zet and coloured by a friend of mine ( I think) Again, it is a card Imade a while ago.  And again I delved into my stash.

Thanks for looking,

THE EMBOSSED LOOK

Hi all

 

Have you all had a good weekend?  It has been a busy crafty one for me.  I now have a parcel all made up ready for mailing and also several cards ready to photograph.  I am gradually getting up to date and working well ahead too.

 

Here I have another card using oen of the Hobby House toppers created by Sylvia Zet.  I just love these! I opted to make an embossed card this time.   I have found  that if I am not sure which paper to use (and you know how we dither at times!) the answer is to get out the embossing folders instead!

Sorry about the Photograph, it seems to be anything but straight!  It looks like I was tipsy when I took this one Haha.  ( I wasn't honestly! lol)

  

I used Cheery Lynn and Joy/Noor diesfrom Noor Desigis UK ,

The embellishments are from Live and Love Crafts

Anything else came from my stash.

Today I have something a little different to share.  It is a mini notepad.  I took the front cover off and replaced it with a cover of my own.  Here is the result.

NOOR CHRISTMAS WINE BOTTLE TAG - SYLVIA ZET

Morning all,

I saved this one for Christmas Eve as it just has a festive feel to it.

  

So I have another Wine Bottle Tag to share today which I made using the lovely products from http://noordesign-shop.co.uk/

Just like the last time I made one of these I started off using the lovely Doobadoo Polyester Bottle Label Stencil .  After creating the shape and cutting the circle with one of my Spellbinders Nestabilities dies (perfect size!), I then covered the lower part with the lovely papers ( Winter Papers).  Then I went from there adding this and that using my Noor (JOY) dies and a selection of lovely embellishments from http://www.liveandlovecrafts.com/

You know at first I thought I did not need this stencil.  I had already made my own template and also have one that a very dear friend sent to me. This was very much an impulse buy but I amso pleased I did buy it and can well recommend it plus all the lovely items I used.

These are the products used from http://noordesign-shop.co.uk/

Doobadoo Polyester Bottle Label Stencil (Doobadoo Polyester Bottle Label Stencil )
0269 Tag Die No 1 ( http://noordesign-shop.co.uk/shop/search.php?q=tag+die) 
0357 Border Die ( http://noordesign-shop.co.uk/shop/search.php?q=Border+die+)
Noor (Joy Designs) bunting die

Snowflake die

Noor Winter 6 inch papers (Winter Papers ). 

I also used:

Hobby House Topper bearing the image created by Sylvia ZetFlowers, embellishments and shabby binding from Live and Love Crafts
Cheesecloth

I loved making this.  I inked the papers with Tim Holtz Distress ink and although it does show not very well on the photo there is lots of  sparkle.

Thanks for looking today and MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE
