Purse Bag.

Here is the  beautiful Purse Bag that was my Secret Santa Present made for me by Christine. She is so clever. It was also filled with Chocolates, they didn't last very long. Thanks so much Christine.

 Here is the side view.

Sparkely Reindeer.

Good morning, I just have to show you this gorgeous Reindeer gift jar I received from Maree. He is so cute and Maree did a fantastic job of making him. So much work involved. I love his nose and how she glittered his antlers. Thanks so much Maree.

Here is the back view, she even glittered his tail. It was full of yummy Christmas Chocolates but I ate some before I tool the photo's. :)

Hope your enjoying the holidays.

Playing with lace.

I have two cards to show you today, both Christmas cards of course.

 When I saw the beautiful Crochet Trim in the Summer Mini Catalogue I remembered that I have a whole box of lace just sitting in the cupboard that my Mum gave me a long time ago. So why not use it.

 The first card I hand stitched the lace to form a flower, finished it of with a button and some ribbon.. The stamp set is Season of Joy, the embossing folder is Vintage Wallpaper. A bit of sponging and spritzing with the new Smooch Spritz and added a few pearls. Colours are Garden Green, Soft Suede, Riding Hood Red and Very Vanilla.

The next card I used the lace as a decorative strip across the bottom of the card. This lace looks so old that it may have been my Grandmothers. Stamp set used is Dasher, the embossing folder is Vintage Wallpaper again. With more sponging and spritzing. Added pearls and ribbon. The colours are Riding Hood Red, Soft Suede and Very Vanilla.

I think this is about as close as I can get to vintage. :)

Thanks for stopping by today.
