Bah Humbug Challenge stitching


I would like to enter this card into the latest Bah Humbug Challenge Stitchin". I am determined to try and enter as many as I can in order to have lots of cards to send to friends at Christmas.
This stamp is from Graphicus and I have painted the tree with Derwent aquacolour, I have stitched around the silver baubles with red embroidery thread. The faux stitches around the other baubles are done with Sakura Glaze pens. The baubles are coloured with stickles and the snowflakes around the tree are embossed with sprinkle and sparkle shimmer powder. The pot is embossed with sprinkle and sparkle christmas green. The backing paper is from the Artylicious Christmas cd rom. The sparkle doesn't really show up on the photo.
thankyou for looking

Bah humbug challenge


This weeks challenge on the Bah Humbug Challenge Blog was Trees. Well as I am new to blogging and wanted to have a go at this one and the closing date and time was today at mid day, I thought that I had better get my skates on.
The stamp I used was Creative Expressions. I stamped with veramark and embossed with silver ep. I smeared the tree with crystal stickles, but that doesn't show up too well on the photo. The garland is bedazzles stuck on with wet glue. The baubles are turquoise stickles and the snow at the bottom is white fine glitter. I embossed the snowflakes around the tree with Sprinkle and Sparkle shimmer ep. The backing Paper is from the artylicious cd rom.
Thankyou for looking.
