Carolling Snoesjes

I just got on line on my main pc, so I can get to read my blog role of what's new for the blogs I'm following.  I don't seem to be able to do that on my gizmo .. .. great for email and watching films, and even shopping, but I can't get the blogging side to work properly.

Anyway, it's time for another Rudolph Day at Scrappy Mo's and since I've been under the weather I've been colouring in to keep me occupied.  Admittedly the cards I made are probably full of germs but I'm told they will all be dead long before I have to post/deliver them!

I inked up my new Snoesjes Winter stamps and coloured with Copics then added the glitter, falling snow and a couple little 'fluff' balls to the ends of their hats.  Here is the card:


It's a small C6 size with a piece of gingham paper matted with teal blue cardstock and overlaid with a large piece of lace and a length of teal gross grain.  I've die cut the image with the Marianne Design stamp die, it's easy to make the big rectangle into a smaller one by just lining up the indentations and cutting again where you want .. .. To decorate I simply added a die cut snowflake from the LR0327 Anya's Circle set and put a Diamond Gem in the centre - they are really sparkly!

Crafty Ribbons want to see some lace this week, so I can enter my Snoesjes card with them too.

That's it, hopefully the next one might be a bit more involved, once I stop sneezing all over the craft table and the embellishments.  The good news is it no longer hurts so much to cough, but I am now bunged up to the eyeballs with snot .. .. so looks like it's just the common cold bugs!

Thanks for stopping by .. .. I'm off to make myself a hot toddy and see if there's a chic flick on tv I can watch from under the duvet - Izzy's already gone to warm up the bed for me!

  5. This is such a beauty! Love that image and the delicate colouring here. After seeing this card, I will be trying to use up some of my wide lace pieces. I had wrongfully thought they were too wide...was I ever wrong cuz this looks so nice here.
    Great card design!
