Get Cracking on Christmas – Colorado Craft Company – Joy Ornaments

January 19, 2023

Maybe you’ve heard that quote attributed to Charles Dickens, “I will honor Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all the year.” Makes it easy when you play along with #Getcrackingonchristmas thanks to Jenn Shurkus http://shurkus.com . Every 3rd Thursday of each month we celebrate by making a card or many in preparation for Christmas, so that by December you have at least 12 cards already made and ready to send!

Starting out right away with a simple, design with a little sparkle background and images from Colorado Craft Company http://www.coloradocraftcompany.com from the Joy Ornaments set.

I love the Alabaster White embossing powder from Brutus Monroe which looks so bright against the deep red of Lawn Fawn’s Barn Red card stock. Using Distress Ink in Aged Mahogany and Black Soot I deepened up the color a bit giving it an almost velvet look.

Mounted it on a piece of Pixie Dust Sparkle card stock again by Lawn Fawn, added some snow flake sequins by Lucy’s Little Things and this month’s card is done. Something nice about a design like this is that multiples are easy using your Misti or a stamp platform.

Adding some products below and substituted the snowflakes for some other sequin types that would work fine. If you shop the links below there is a small compensation given at NO cost to you. And, I always LOVE your comments and that you stopped by the blog!

Have a WONDERFUL New Year and keep Christmas in your heart!

XOXO

DASHING THROUGH THE SNOW

October 24, 2017

Termination dust. That’s what Alaskan’s refer to as the first bits of snow showing up on the mountaintops. Those bits made their way covering our yard and driveway last weekend.

There’s a feeling, a cozy feeling that overcomes you when the snow covers the ground, it’s cold enough to put a sweater on, you don’t have to drive anywhere and you sit down with a warm cuppa and it’s quiet.
