BOX AND SIX LIITLE STAMPED CARDS


Hi and welcome to all my very talented friends, and visitors.

Today I have some more of my makes for the Bazaar.
I decided I wanted to make some boxes with six little cards inside.
These I made  by stamping my stars on snippets of white card so I will be joining my playground friends in the Snippets Playground.
 I really enjoyed making these.
As the sentiment is also a Christmas Song I will be joining the Allsorts Challenge as well.



 The cards are 4"x4" in size, and I made the box to fit them.
I started by free hand stamping my background with  stamps that came free with the Creative Stamping Magazine.
Then I stamped my stars onto snippets of card with Memento Danube Blue Ink.
I the matted them on to non shed glitter card from the pundland.
This I did by drawing around the stars and cutting them all out with a small border as I didn't have a die for them.

Thank you so much for your visit, and precious time.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

Oooh these are just so pretty Jenny - I love that blue and white colouring. The stamp is absolutely gorgeous too. Fantastic creations.

Big hugs to you matey - oh and Graham offered to do the punching - well I sort of planted a seed (if you know what I mean) and he fell for it. Ooops.

Love Sue Pxxx

Brilliant cards Jenny - love the blue, white and silver. Wonderful layout and I'd super-impressed that you cut the outer star layers by hand. Fabulous and I do love how you're never beaten :)

What a wonderful idea for your Christmas Bazaar Jenny. Your cards are so pretty. When my Mum was in the nursing home I used to make sets of cards for fundraising but put them in cello bags. They look so much better presented in a pretty box. I hope you made more than one set. They are sure to sell. Barbxx

Blue & white is always such a crisp and fresh color combination, and looks so pretty for your boxes. Great job on free hand cutting the stars too. Yay for using up a few snippets as well. You've been a very busy crafter! TFS & Hugs

Brenda said...

Oh Jenny, these little boxes and cards are so stinkin' cute! I love the beautiful blue ink you used and I love your beautiful stamps. It's good to play along in a challenge again, even if it isn't all the time, it is good to get in "there" once in a while! Hug, Brenda
