The Trees and the Season

Hello crafters and dear friends! As much as kids love decorating trees, I love creating them on paper or card. These cards use some new die-cuts from Docrafts which come in a smaller size than their usual ones. They are intricate and I really like the way they look on my crafts.
As per lately, I used kraft recycled card for the card base, green recycled card for the tree and some cream cardstock from the scrap stash for one of the sentiments.

It also hangs from the top fold and it’s got a bow. For this I used some green twine. There some metallic embelishments made with a gelly roll pen from Sakura.
The sentiment is die-cut using one of the latest Xcut dies from Docrafts.

Both trees have a star on top: one is tiny and golden and the other is a bit bigger and silver.

Hope you enjoyed your visit on the blog and look forward to having you back,

Masculine Tie Cards

Good morning, everyone! Hope you all had a great weekend.:-)
I’ve got a pair of masculine tie cards to show for today. For some time now, I said I’ve got to design at least one more card each time I set myself to make one. As there are a lot of upcoming birthdays this month I’ve made some extra to build a go to birthday cards stash. Read more
