Little Outbursts of Creativity

Improvised Christmas ornaments

I made some Christmas ornaments using some of my Hero Arts sets. I only own one HA Christmas set and I wanted to try to improvise to stretch my stamps. I used a brush stroke circle for the ornaments, stamped it twice to make the colors pop more on the kraft background. Then I embossed a cicle and some leaves on top of it. Lastly I used another brushstroke stamp to make a reflection in the ornaments. I also used the Stepping Stone alpha to spell out the word joy. Lots of stamps on this cards. And a small alpha of unknown brand. Pretty happy with the card concidering nothing is really ment for Christmas. Gotta love the stretch your stamps classes from onlinecardclasses.com. I guess something stuck ;)

I hope you got some ideas how to make something out of something else. There is probably better ways to make ornaments but this is what I came up with. Thanks for stopping by!

Inspiration for the December challenge at Hobbyworld

It’s time for a new challenge in the Hobbyworld blog. This time your mission is to make a christmas card but without the classical christmas colors red and green. I used a spellbinders die to cut out a glittery christmas ornament. The background is blur with glittery gold stars ad a pink banner. How do you make a christmas card without traditional christmas colors? It’s nice to do something different för a change!

Material/Supplies:

• Bazzil Cardstock Card Shoppe 8,5x11 Marshmallow
• Silhouette Nestabilities Mix-N-Match Ornaments
• Spellbinders Glitter Pulver – Gold
• Scrapbook Adhesives 3D Foam Squares - White, Variety Pack

25’th and Pine

I’ve made a matchig set of three christmas cards using the lovely Basic Grey collection 25’th and Pine. I love the old fashioned style and colors. This was one of the challenges from Karlstad that I didn’t have time to make. Luckely enough for me there are still time since the CC at Svensk Scrapbooking have all the same challenges. And even better I got these lovely papers from Hobbyworld in my DT-kit and it’s quite easy making a kit with all papers from the same series. I’ve used the green leaves with the red berrys to tie the cards together and also the twine is the same on all three cards.

I cut out one of the tags from a patterned paper and used a chubby eyelet to make it complete, the ornament is from one of the sticker sheets.

All these decorations comes from a pack full of lovely die cuts.

The last card I’ve embellished with stickers and one of the diecuts. I rounded two of the corners with the WRMK corner chomper.

Juldekoration gjord med kantstans

Jag har pumlor på hjärnan! Jag tror verkligen att pumlor är årets julgrej för mig. Viss år har jag dille på ljus, andra år på glitter. I år är det pummelåret och jag vill bara ha varenda stämpel jag hittar med pummelmotiv. Denna goding kommer från Tim Holtz och den är galet snygg! Mer om julprydnaden hittar du i CiLi-bloggen.

PS. Pumlan pumlar i sin pumlighet på ett pummelprytt October Afternoon-mönsterpapper. Det har pumliga små hål stansat med hjälp av en smått pumlig MS-stans.

Kramar i massor från pummelgalningen! (vad blev det? 11 pumlor i ett enda inlägg? 12 nu.. bäst jag slutar... O.o... nu fick jag lägga in en pummelkategori också... 13... pumlor... så, nu blev det 14 så jag inte får otur! )
