A little Holiday Village



Hi Girls

Just a quickie today... I saw a card by Chrissie on LIM the other day using this fab stamp and die set... and of course, had to track it down!  I decided to use mine on a red background rather than white..  but with regard to the colouring... although I would have liked to make it a bit different, there is little choice but to do the trees green!!  However, mine do have a smattering of the all important glitter...


I really took to this set...  so easy to make and colour ...  so it may be another one I can turn out a few of!

Recipe:
Memory Box Poppy Stamps - Holiday Village Stamp and Die
Paula Pascual Sentiment - Christmas 

The most difficult bit was getting a photo of the true red colour...  always so difficult to do, but this is as close as I could get.

Hope you like!

Big hugs
Christine xxx

  9. A perfect CAS card Christine - just what is needed for those many Christmas cards. I reckon it would look good in non-traditional colours too or stamped on Kraft card...have I just talked myself into getting it?
    No, I really can't but your card is so tempting!
    Big hugs, Kat xx

    PS - You did indeed spot a choo choo track in one of my piccies. It's hubbies hobby - model trains and miniature trains (there is a difference I'm told!). Tho if I told him we'd said choo-choo he'd have a pink fit!! Probably more than when I used to play with his model buses when I first knew him. Mint In Box means something I'm told!!!

  14. What a great set. Love the scene. It's great for a guy's card too, which I'm always on the lookout for as I'm so bad at those kind of cards.
