More Quickie Christmas Cards...



Thought I would just post a few more last-minute Christmas cards which are on order. Posted all mine on Sunday and then a few more today.   The card above was made using the lovely digi stamp from Vera of Heartland Creek Graphics.  You'll find her blog under my list of blogs I visit regularly. She's come up with some lovely new graphics, which I'm sure will impress you. Please pay her a visit when you have the time.



I still love my little Penny Black snow couple and the candy bar stamps. Nice to use for those quickie cards you want to make. They look absolutely fab in real life with all the glitter on them - not sure if you can pick this up in the pic though.

I've just been commissioned to do a farewell card for tomorrow and I hope when I sit down tonight that the creative juices will just flow, unlike last night when my mojo just died on me!!  Never mind, it was a good excuse to call my buddy Paola and have a chat. There's always something to chat about, which I really enjoy.  Take care everyone, hugs Sharon x

The Hedgehogs!


One of my new Penny Black stamps which I coloured in with Copics.  Couldn't wait to make a card with this image. I love these little hedgehogs. They are adorable! Like Henry the Mouse - would love to get my hands on one of him - LOL. The card is a dark brown (love my browns and pinks - sigh!) and adorned the card with some lovely pink flowers, 2 pearls, lovely spotted brown satin ribbon. I was very satisfied with this one upon completion and I really hope you'll like it too!  Appreciate your comments, hugs Sharon

White is Nice Too


Used my Penny Black stamp, Snow Couple, again and mounted onto half green and half blue cardstock, which I then mounted onto a green card embossed with snow dots. The embossed and glittered snowflake on turquoise paper is from American Crafts called Merrymint - Marshmallow (34916) and was purchased from the Scrapbook shop near Tygervalley.  I used my silver glitter glue to make dots to give the card a bit of a lift and finished it off with a white and silver bow. Hope you like my creation.  It's now almost midnight, so I'd better dash as it's up early for work in the morning.  Nitey nite Sharon

Penny Black Snow Couple


My final Penny Black stamped creation for this evening, called Cuddle in Snow.  I think it is an adorable image and couldn't wait (again) to stamp, colour and create a card with this image. Aren't they sweet?  They remind me of my folks who are affectionately called Oupa and Ouma by their grandchildren. Popped in at the folks around lunch time today as I'm supplying Mom with Christmas cards this year for her to send to people on her Christmas Card List. Just wanted to share with her what I've already made so far. They are so complimentary, which is very sweet. They really adore my cards. Thanks Mom and Dad for your support and love ;)   Enjoy the rest of your evening bloggers and all the best for the working week ahead. Thanks for popping by once again, hugs Sharon

Another Penny Black stamp called Beach Girl.  How she manages to stay on that surfboard with those sticky legs, is anyone's guess LOL.  I thought she was so cute, just had to stamp and colour her to make a card.  Didn't have an appropriate sentiment so just embellished with a round card button and ribbon and then stamped some pink bubbles onto the black cardstock.

My first creation using a Penny Black stamp!


Hmmm, I notice a few of my blogging buddies have been very creative this weekend.  I'm pleased to report, so have I ;)   Got my new stash yesterday, read my earlier post and you'll see what I bought. Well, I couldn't let the weekend go by without stamping, colouring and making cards with my new toys, so... here is my first Penny Black stamped creation.  The stamp is Just for You and I think this boy looks so cute (check those legs LOL). Coloured in with the trusted Copics again and added a bit of glitter for some sparkle.  Hope you like it.  Please leave a comment if you do. ;)
