Faith, Hope & Crafts

  Hello friends I made some of these cards for a craft fair I was doing a couple of weeks ago. They all sold out before I managed to take a picture of them. So I made another one today so I could get it on the blog before Christmas.  I really love this sentiment it is cute and oh so TRUE!! Ha :)  This stamp set is called  Christmas Brief  from Unity.  I coloured and cut the pants and then added some glitter around the them and stuck them down with foam dots. Then I stamped the sentiment and added some silver stars. It was a really easy card to make. Thanks so much for stopping by my blog. I hope that you have a wonderful Christmas and remember to keep believing!! Mandi xox Linking up with   Virginias View  touch of glitter Simon Says Stamp Wed Make it Sparkle

      Hello My lovely Friends   I hope you are all well this Christmas season. I was cleaning my desk last night and found lots of stamps that I forgot I had. So I made this wee Noel card. They were buried under a mess on my desk. This was one of the new ones that I got a few weeks ago she is called Only Imagine . How cute is she?? I love her wee face and her huge big eyes. The Noel is from another stamp set called Silent Night .  So I put the them together to make a Christmas card.   I got some  new Derwent Inktense Watercolour Pencils last week the 36 set and I really love them. They were an early Christmas present from my Mum. They are so easy to work with and they travel really well which is another reason I wanted them.  I had the smaller set and I really like them a lot now I have lots of colours. So I used them to colour my card. I added some enamel accents to create the snow.  Then some clear glitter glue and finally a wee rhinestone star just to finish it all
