W and X are for...., DT cards for ABC Christmas Challenge.

Hi and welcome to two new letters at
ABC Christmas Challenge.

Lindsey is our host in November
and her letters and themes are:

W is for Wreath!
and
X is for fauX!

Wreath! At first I was panicking! What what shall I make??

I couldn't think of any image in my crafting room

with anything like a wreath.

But Pinterest and Google are my friends,

and I found Patsy Waggoner from Stamps to Die For

and I desided to CASE her wonderful card. 

I have punched leaves in tree different green colours with a punch

 from EK and arranged them in a circle. Added a red

bow and mounted the wreath on a white square.

Behind the white cardstock there is some 

design paper from LOTV.

I love  the way this card turned out.

My X for fauX card is a card with faux stitches. The cute image is from LOTV.

and the sentiment is also from LOTV. 

Papers from Basic Grey.

A close up at the sweet girly image.
I love the non traditional colours for Christmas.

 

Patsy Waggoner made this beautiful card,
thank you for your inspiration.

Lindsey is offering this prize to two lucky winners.

So what are you wating for; make a W or X
 Christmas themed project and join in the challenge.

A and B are for...A DT card for ABC Chrstmas Challenge.

The design team at ABC Christmas Challenge are ready to a new trip through the alphabet. 

Every month we are ready with two- sometimes three- themes

which represents the letters in the alphabet.
 
 This year we are going sponsor free...don't worry, there will still be the incentive of a little prize
 (or two) each month, but they have been donated by our lovely design team members.

Helen is the first host of the year and the letters are:

A is for ANYTHING CHRISTMAS GOES

and

B is for BERRIES

  My first card is an 'A for Anything Goes'

I've made a white and gold card using a wonderful die from
 'Simple and Basic' saying 'God Jul' (Merry Christmas)
 and a star wreath die from Avery Elle.

 The ribbon is recycled from one of my christmas presents.

 I couldn't resist showcasing one of my cute christmas moose ;)

  Card number two is a 'B for Berries' card.

Using a simple card design and the same 'God Jul' die and some old 

Basic Grey papers, my card was almost ready.  

A bow made of twine, some punched leaves and 

three small pearls made the final toutch

And I had to show you some of my favorite 'nisser'.

They are from Denmark and every year there's a new pair.

They are called 'Klarborg Nisser '

There are a couple of prizes on offer from Helen our challenge host

 (comprising a 6x6 paper pad & a co-ordinating stamp set) for two lucky winners:

My card for today is a birthday for a friend who loves to cook.
The image features Amanda, and it's called 'Chef Amanda'.

 The papers are from an old Basic Grey line, called 'Nook and Pantry'.
It's not the colours I normally uses, but they was a perfect go with this image.

Et hoppende tillykke!

Jeg har en kusine som fejrer rund fødselsdag i dag, 

og her er kortet som er sendt til henne.

Jeg er ikke sikker på om det er kommet frem i tide,

posten er ikke hvad den har været!

 Jeg har brugt et gammelt stempel fra LOTV som jeg altid har

syntes rigtig godt om.  Det hedder 'Spring Bunny With Daffodils'.

Papiret er 'Kioshi' fra Basic Grey.

Gengivelserne af farverne er ikke helt vellykket, men det her er det

beste jeg fik til. Kaninen er monteret under det 'ternede' papir

så kortet får lidt dybde.

Blomster og blade er punchet ud.

We have a new chall theme starting today at House Mouse and Friends challenge blog.

Our challenges now run with

 Anything Goes 

Use a House Mouse, Happy Hopper or Gruffie stamped image/decoupage

or CD rom for all our challenges..

OR  

Preparing For Christmas!

The Option Theme hosted by our talented teamie  aNNie 

The House Mouse stamp I've used for my Christmas card, it's called 'Deck The Halls'.

 It's a large stamp, so there's no space for a lot of embellishments.

Some white ribbon, a button and some pearls, that's all.

 The sweet paper with oenaments is from Basic Grey- Eskimo Kisses.

In the first hand I had found some other design paper,

but colouring up the image I choose a wrong red for the ornaments.

So I had to find some other papers!
