I've been designing Christmas cards to make for NEXT year

I've decided to make my Christmas cards in batches next year so have been looking at something simple to do.
I've designed these, all A6 so I can print 4 toppers on an A4 sheet of card.
Once the template is done..........that is what takes the time...........they are so easy to do.
ALL done with fonts
The image is a font too called SL Christmas Silhouettes

Now this week at Less is More it is

 COLOUR

Red and Green

 

 

So I decided to make some in those colours..........Not too happy with the outcome. The green glitter

is far too heavy, and because I took the photo before it was dry the gold doesn't look too good either.

BUT I DO like how the NOEL has turned out. Again, mostly fonts except for the holly sprigs. I have coloured the berries with a glace pen just to make them stand out a bit.

 

 

 

 

And the original one in gold!







Glamour and Glitz at LIM

Hi everyone

 

GLAMOUR AND GLITZ

 

this week at Less is More

 

 

I had a long hard think about this, as I like to make cards I will eventually use. Also looking at everyone's photos, most were finding them very difficult to photograph. Then I remembered I had some glitter card so designed a fairly simple card with an ornamental brad  I bought a while ago.

Added two photos, as the first one came out two different colours on the glitter card, and as you can see on the second....it is the same....and photographed much better

Less is More Mk 2

Ha ha, I'm back into the swing of things now!
I've just been through all my stash looking for a particular ribbon (I still can't find it)
BUT I did find these metal butterflies, and a sentiment with a metal rim.................so.........Another card for the Less is More challenge, seeing as this week is to use some sort of hardware. I wasn't particularly happy with the first one anyway, and like this one better!

 

 



Less is more card

Well it's a long awaited hello from me. If you've missed me, it's because I've been in hospital for five and a half months. I won't bore you with the details here, but it is one hell of a HORROR story!!  If you'd like to know the details you can read them HERE
The consultant now thinks it will be at least April until it is all sorted. And I will be left with a big dent in my btm!

Anyway back to the job in hand..............Less is More...........I've missed you.
I've been home from hospital for about five weeks now and thought I had better get back into the swing of things.
The task this week is to add hardware..........and the only metal I have are charms......The quote was said to my husband yesterday, by an elderly man walking his dog. I thought it would make a good card, so I was glad when I could use it!



A few Christmas cards from the new La Pashe CD

So so easy to do....just print and cut. I made them 6 x 6 but they could be made a lot bigger.
I like them, not very often do I make square Christmas Cards



Thought I would try this too

Having made one similar to this, see previous post......... I thought I would try with butterflies.. I think I like this better. Sentiment in pink as I am having a problem with my black ink cartridge at the moment as it is printing with a shadow!!
Butterflies inked with pink on the edges.



Ooooops!! They were told I was a girl!!

This is going to seem strange to me, as being in hospital for so long I didn't see Emma pregnant. Now she has had a baby boy, but were told it was going to be a girl. I've heard about a mistake the other way round, but never this way...............They have done the nursery in pink too. ooooops!!
It took a while to sort a name out I think...they probably had loads of girls names chosen. I love his name and it goes well with their surname which is Goff
