Yuletide Village Part 3... tea light dome bauble...

 A tea light lit snow globe for the christmas tree....

Have to admit that there is a storm blowing out there as I type these posts... which is maybe affecting Blogger as icons aren't showing etc... so its all a bit of a puzzle!! So I will be brief in my shars for a few days! 

Yuletide Village Part 2 - more Snowglobes

 

A few more Yuletide Village & Frosted Forest Snow Globe makes...

Season of Green & Gold Multi Panel Pop Up Card

A more special card using the Season of Green and Gold beautiful foiled papers... and the  Greetings of the Season set  ... a multi panel pop up card... aka a Five Panel Pop Up Card...

I altered to suit A6 card dimensions.... but the card was based on another of Sam at Mixed Up Crafts' clever designs... 

Season of Green & Gold papers....

Love these Season of Green and Gold beautiful foiled papers... so quite a few different designs made... starting with this set of 5... 4 cards and a Book Treat Box for the christmas table...

I do have lots more photos of these cards to share... however technology is not on my side today... the watermarks being larger than the cards!!! So (somewhat annoyingly) I will have to come back to them another day....

It's been a while...

Since I last posted a creative share.... and wow I didn't realise how long a while!!! So so sorry... but normal Life bacame a tad too busy this year!

I have had a few people ask after me recently (thank you!)...  so I think it is high time I shared a few things to show I am still alive and still designing &creating new projects....

So Christmas makes first... all of which were made using either the gorgeous Green and Gold foiled papers ... OR Yuletide Village (now discontinued and unavailable) combined with the Frosted Forest  bundle... 

Along with the online exclusives Greetings of the Season set (or various retired greetings sets I used before the new set arrived!) 

First up - a trio of Yuletide Village & Frosted Forest cards... Diorama to the left... Snow Globe in the middle and a very simple Large Square Card to the right!
