Christmas Cards 2

  Hello again Chit Chatters.... Robyn Leeanne here with 3 more Christmas cards made using the Christmas Gnome collection from Maja Designs.

Christmas is catching up to us very quickly now so I thought making more Christmas cards would be the way to go with this blog. 

As I said last time there are so many different ways to personalize a card these days, written messages in store bought cards, there are cards sent via email but I still think homemade is best. Its nice to think that someone has sat and thought about all the good times while making you a special card. Don't you agree?

Card 1

Shaker Card

To make this card I used frames cut with a die from contrasting papers from the collection and layered them. 

Using foam mount tape and acetate I created the window for the shaker pieces (Glass cabochons and Glitter). Cut out a Gnome and added to the bottom side of frame and added the chipboard title for the card.

Ancestry Layout.

Hello my crafty friends

Today I have a double Layout with multiple photos for you.

I am using the Simple Stories "Vintage Ancestry" collection for this layout.

Recently I had done some digging into the family's past and this helped this layout come together really well.

Using multiple photos in a double layout is great for telling the whole story all at once. I usually do a cover type page then a double with multiple and then you have a booklet of the whole story.

As you can see the paper I chose has an ancestry layout on it which of course made it much easier. 

It took me a while to lay this out as the frames.

I cut my title from one the postcard size pictures on one the papers.

Decorated with some foam stickers and normal stickers along with some red pearl dots

Then I cut down the center ready for its sleeve in the album.
