NEW YEAR – NEW CALENDAR

The start of a new year comes always with a new calendar. And this year is not any different from the previous two when I made different calendars for my friends and myself.

But, unlike the previous two years when I tended to complicate things and make my little calendars 3D challenging ( from decorating twelve different pages to making easel card calendars), this time I  went completely simple by using a  sheet of A4 and simple scoring and folding on my embossing boards and Ultimate Pro.

 

For magic ingredients I used:

• Brown cardstock
• Ultimate Pro from CC
• Urban stamps from DO crafts
• Mirri card- gold
• Some old inkpads for distressing
• Cuttlebug
• Darice embossing folder
• Gold gems
• Collal silicone glue.

Mince Pies

There is a lesson that I have learnt this year and it is not to make Christmas cards too early.  It cost me my mojo that disappeared in the late October.
 
To make anything turned into a struggle. Finally, after having felt guilty and uninspired, I managed to find my mojo.

It came back in a big style and I made this card for my 'other half' with lots of love.

The magical ingridients are:

• Ultimatepro - Crafter's Companion
• Spectrum Noir pens - Crafter's Companion
• SWALK Winter Cheer stamp - I love mince pies
• Some organza ribbon 
• Centura Pearl card - Crafter's Companion
• Papermaina Christmas paper 2010 from DO Crafts, and 
• Lots of love and magic.

Merry Christmas everyone!!!!
