A little bling for Less is More

A very quick post and a very quick card.

I have taken an A6 card - yes I still have some blanks that size, and run it through the Bug with an embossing folder.  I have then stamped and embossed the sentiment in the middle - I used green tinsel, and added some little starts to the snowflake centres.  I guess though I am going to have to unfold them to put through the bug because the fold has become a little creased.

I think the conclusion that I have come to over One-Layer and CAS - is that I do like them, enjoy doing them, but I need much more practice, because my bin is evidence of what I have been doing!

I am entering this into the following challenges:

Crafty Cardmarkers - Heat Embossing
Less is More - A Bit of Bling
Stamptacular Sunday - Anything Christmas
Stamps R Us - Emboss It

I really appreciate it that you take the time to look at my blog and leave such lovely comments. Thank you each and every one of you.

 Hugs,

T'was the night before Christmas ...

Another Christmas card today.  I bought this lovely Sarah Kay image - Noel Peace -  last year and never used it.  I think it is so sweet.

I have coloured this lovely little angel with Copics, and she is peeking out from behind the curtain at the night sky - hence all the crystals added to it.  My papers are from the Basic Grey Figgy Pudding range, and sadly this is the last of this particular one.  I edged all round the patterned paper with a versamark embossing pen and  dipped the edges into Starlight embossing  powder.  I have also done the same with the snowflake border towards the bottom.  The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts, and I have removed the centre of the Christmas rose and replaced it with a brad.  The lush satin ribbon is an ebay purchase.  The acetate snowflakes are covered with Glamour Dust.
