Whimsy Stamps ~ Christmas Eve Greetings
Hello lovely crafty friends, it's Christmas Eve here in New Zealand, I've wrapped all the pressies, prepped all the food for tomorrow and find I have a few minutes tonight to share another Christmas creation. I actually have several cards left to share, but found I was creating faster than I could blog! But I'm so pleased to have all the wrapping done ahead of time as I so often am up wrapping deep into the night on Christmas Eve. Am I alone in this?!
I used the lovely new snowflake stencil from Whimsy to create this ink blended background. I used Spun Sugar, Milled Lavender and Tumbled Glass Distress Inks to blend the snowflake and then simply stamped a lovely sentiment in the middle to finish this CAS design. My mum asked for 'one last card' so I whipped up this card quite quickly and she was thrilled. I paired it with a lovely Innocent Pink Envelope from Gina K Designs. Mum happily was delighted with this last minute make and I must say I love how the ink blending came together for this creation. A very CAS design for me, but I love it.
Thanks for popping in to visit today. I hope your Christmas plans are coming together well. I'm happy to be well prepared for a change and I'm so looking forward to our lovely plans with extended family tomorrow. I can't wait to give the littlies their pressies, that always gives me so much joy! Hugs and Happy Christmas Wishes, Wends xoxo
