A Christmas Order

Firstly I would like to apologise for the flash in the photo's.
 Below are a few cards I have made for a Christmas card order.They have all been left blank as requested. I have repeated the images but made each one different, whether it be backing papers ,stamped images or embellishments.

VINTAGE THEMED ATC'S

Here are a selection of vintage themed ATC's (ARTIST TRADING CARDS)  I made today. It is one of my favourite themes and colours.
I swap monthly with  some people in the UK and bi-monthly with people abroad.
They are small enough to collect 3 1/2 inches by 2 1/2 inches without needing much space for storage.
They are great to use up bits and pieces in your craft stash, and its a different challenge to things on this small scale.

Saving money on backing paper.

I always like to try and save pennies and also experiement with different backing materials, the card below is wrapping paper used as backing. 
I think it looks quite striking, and it really helps save money.

Simplicity


I have been making more Christmas cards and had a very productive day yesterday. The power was out most of the day so I decided to do some crafting and make good use of the time.
I made around 50 cards with using the same verse of scripture but all slightly different design
I left them very simple and I am pleased with the end result.

Jumbo cards

Well your probaly thinking what are Jumbo cards , well they are 12 cms by 8.5 cms cards. I had a go at a private swap and here they are.

I might have a go at making postcards because they are a little different to sending a notelet to  a person.
