I stamped the (new) houses on some wooden stars, and coloured them using Posca's and water colour pencils. Lot's of fun creating these! I used Texture paste for the snow, it works really well for that. Before the paste was dry I sprinkled on a tiny bit of silver glitter.
A couple of quick postage collage cards. On the card above I used a mix of the Poinsettia set, and the Gingerbread set. The snowflake was a free die I got with the Gingerbread set. It's just the right size for these cards!
So, yesterday I discovered that several craft places were having online 75% off Christmas sales! It was too tempting to resist... so I went shopping! My poor bank balance! Now I just wait for things o arrive in the mail! Then I had to go out to buy some ew summer thongs (Jandals) as my old ones were wearing out, and had become dangerous because they were too loose. Now for 99% of people, you just walk in to a shoe store and choose a pair of shoes off the shelf. Not so for me! I have very small feet, and have big trouble finding something I like, that actually fits. I spent about 45 minutes in the shoe shop trying on multiple pairs of shoes. Everything was too big, too loose. Luckily I did eventually find a pair that fit, were comfortable, and I liked them. And they were on a 75% off the original price sale, as the craft stuff I bought online was!! So this is why I'm sure I'm on Santa's Naughty List - spending too much money! Ok, that's it for today. Thanks for dropping by! Have a SUNSHINE day! Remember to always be your authentic self, and shine bright each and every day!
Those ornaments are really pretty. And your cards are lovely too. Glad you got some retail therapy in!!!
