This is my card for you today!

Here is the front... Papers from Magnolia acctually... from a few years back. Lots of flowers.... or it wouldn't be me would it? :-) Lovely lace and a die cut star from Memory Box.

DT Copic Marker Sweden: Merry Christmas!

Yeay!! Christmas Eve.... This is a pre-schedueled posting as I'm probably about to watch my boys open the presents in their stockings. Yup - we celebrate Christmas today on the 24th here in Sweden.

 

So I thought I'd share a very special Christmas wish with you today! I took part in a Secret Santa thing over at Make it Crafty this year and I had great fun creating this card that went all the way across the ocean to Canada with a little gift as well....

 

 

I did a few easel cards this year and am very happy with how they turned out.

 

The papers are from Maja Design... of course... :-) The image is called Angelica in flight - isn't she gorgeous! Loved coloring her but I was so scared to mess her up....

 

Here is a close up.... needless to say - I used my Copic Markers... again.... This is why I started to use them... coloring Christmas red.

 

So MERRY CHRISTMAS my friends.... and don't miss my second posting in a few hours.... :-)

 

Have a sparkly, magical and amazing Christmas!

Yummy Christmas!

Today I'm back with another altered chocolate box.... This one I sent to my sister and it's safe to show it as she received it already :-)

Added die cuts as well... a snowflake border from NoorDesign/Joy Craft, snowy trees from Magnolia... Sentiment from Bildmålarna. (means Merry Christmas)

In the other corner there are a pair of die cut mittens from NoorDesign/Joy Crafts. The chocolate box...

The meaning of Chrismas.... featuring Mo Manning....

So this weekend I was at a crop with a few of my dearest crafty friends... we had a great time; laughing, chatting and crafting.... I think it's really priceless to have that valued time with friends in a hectic few days before Christmas... That's the meaning of Christmas for me.

So this is one of the things I made.... a gift for my parents for Christmas.... We won't be celebrating togther but rather had time for that a couple of weeks back. I still want them to know that I will be thinking of them even though we aren't together so I made this box and sent to them.

I adore this litte darling image.,... another true meaning of Christmas.... I colored with my Copic Markers on craft paper.

I keep forgetting the name of the maker of this lovely holly die... *arghh* Well I do love it anyway.... Flowers.... some berries and a pinecone. Satin ribbon with gold stars on.

I added a litte angel to the side as well....

Gorgeous large stars from Memory Box, have had the smaller pair for a while but am now the lucky owner of the large ones as well...

Inside there is a chocolate gift.... My Mum is crazy for anything with orange in and especially chocolate so I'm hoping she will like this.... :-)

Have a magical and sparly day!

A while back I purchased my first images from Cuddly Buddy and this image that I used was one of them. This puppy is just soo adorable hanging on to those Christmas Bells... don't you think?

 

 

Here is a close up on the image. Added lots of Stickles to the bells and had to add a couple of bells to the tag as well.

 

I used papers from my stash for this one, added some ribbons, pearls and a doily... perfect for any Christmas gift.
