my piece of paper

Hello!

I have been thinking about playing along and taking part in a challenge lately, but with the Holidays around the corner I just didn´t focus on it enough, or had enough time. But a few days before Christmas I was asked to make some kind of "Ticket Holder" and I guess that turned out to be my challenge!

Lets see...some kind of ticket holder to be given as a Christmas present to a man... I searched through my stash of stamps and everything felt just too cute for this special occasion. I suddenly wished I had purchased that Lawn Fawn stamp with the airplane! It´s on my wish list now!

I was thinking bold colors and Christmas, for me that would be black and red, a map to where this person is going. In one of my drawers I found these "Travel"cards from Sn@p and now I was getting somewhere, the ideas started to come to me! I printed out the map of the area to where this person is travelling!

Of course there had to be a beautiful red ribbon to tie the whole thing together!
Easy to slide of when opening the card/envelope/ticket holder.

I can´t even remember the last time I made a "card" without using stamps and Copic markers!

Thanks for stopping by!

Hello and Happy Holidays!

Decorated match boxes are perfect as small gifts!

This year I have decorated match boxes using the cute reindeer from the "Let´s prance" set
from Clearly Besotted. They are perfect size when creating these small scenes!

I have colored the images with Copic markers, backround is colored
using just a light wash of Distress Ink, Tumbled Glass.

I have added some Stickles to the trees for some glitter and a frosty feel! 

Thank you for stopping by today and Merry Christmas!

The background/falling snow is made using Distress Ink Tumbled glass and the "Falling snow" stencil from Simon Says Stamp. The penguin is colored with Copic markers.

For this card I made a little kitty choir, using "Singing Napoleon" from Magnolia stamps!  

The sentiment stamp is from the "Christmas Circular Sentiments" set from
Lily of the Valley. A lovely set with twelve different Holiday sentiments.

The cats are colored with Copic markers and the  
background is colored with Distress inks.

Hello!

I use these cool cats often! These tags are a repeat of some tags I made last year,
but with some smaller changes! I love the dramatic effect of the white brick wall against the black and the combination of black and red! And the black and white twine is my favorite go to, as it goes with almost everything!

The kittens are from the "Cool Cat" set from Birdie Brown and My Favorite Things,
they are colored with Copic Markers. I have used a tag die from the "Terrific Tag" die set (six pieces! This is the second largest) from Bo Bunny. The sentiment is from the "On thin ice" set from Clearly Besotted, the little paw print is from the puppy stamp set from Paperie Ink!

The brick wall is made using white ink and the "Small brick wall" stencil also from
My Favorite Things and a sponge dauber!

Thank you for stopping by!

Hello!

Meet Miss December! A digi stamp from the Thoroughly Modern Misses Collection
from Lily of  the Valley Stamps!

Miss December is colored with Copic markers and the background is colored using Distress Inks. The stars are heat embossed using the "Confetti" stencil from Heidi Swapp, Versamark emboss ink and embossing powder.

I have added Stickles to the wreath and the ribbons on the gift boxes and some
dots of Glossy accent on the red berries on the wreath.

I love the dramatic mix of red and pink on her pants and jacket,
and aren´t her Ugg-ish boots cute!

Thank you for stopping by today!
