May Peace, Joy & Love Be Yours This Christmas

 Hello there friends!

I saw the Fussy Cutting challenge at 52 Christmas Card Throwdown and realized I have old pictures to cut into 3D cards bought a lifetime ago, at least it feels that way. This is how it turned out, after a lot of cutting...



I hava also used an old sentiment stamp from Bild målarna, Vellum, Clear Embossing Pouder and Star Dust Stickles.

As always thanks so much for stopping by!
Hugs, Birgit

I´m also linking up with the following challenges:

Creative Knockouts - Christmas in July
Try It On Tuesday - Pretty Papers
The Holly and Ivy Christmas - Anything Christmas Goes
Dream Valley - Christmas in July

Wanted To Say It With An Ice Cream

 Happy Friday friends!

I was inspired by the Bon Appetit challenge over at The Paper Players for this card...


...and I have used a digi stamp which I colored with Copic pens, Distress inks and Tim Holtz Embossing glazes to get a glossy surface.

As always thanks so much for stopping by!
