Dream a Little Christmas Magic...

Hello lovely peeps,

Those of you who visit me frequently would be saying under your breath, "What, another white on white Christmas card!!!" Anyway for better or for worse, here it it is. Really easy peasy to make and sell. Added white liquid pearls for interest since there is little effort here and yet it looks elegant, doesn't it? The sentiment is a clear stamp that was sent to me by my dear blog buddy Sandra who is on a sabbatical from blog land (I miss her dearly).

I will enter this card in:

http://artisticinspirationschallenges.blogspot.co.uk/ - anything goes

http://addicted-to-stamps-challenge.blogspot.co.uk/ - Christmas is coming

Am trying my best to survive the Autumn break :-)

Lots of love,

A very bright Diwali card

Hello bloggers,

 Gentle warning - you may need sunglasses to view this card...

Here is a card for Diwali - the Indian festival of lights. Diwali is all about colour and glitter so I tried and made this card as bright as could be. The little Indian embellishment you see with sequins and a gem in the centre is from India and so is the very metallic orange paper which has been embossed. The paper went was done with my fave Swiss dots embossing folder.  The tear drop gems are from Paper Mania and the gold ribbon is from my stash. 

Down below is Aleeza pulling a funny face at her teddy bear's picnic all in the comfort of her room :-) I thought picnics were always in a garden, never mind! Lol.

She made these flowers out of play dough entirely on her own... they looked so pretty in real life that I had to photograph them - sadly it is not the best picture (it shook a bit).

I will enter my card in the following:

Peace On Earth

Hello sweet bloggers,

Autumn break has begun and I do hope that Aleeza will not be up at the six in the morning as she does at most weekends. Oh how I wish I could sleep late on some mornings...   :-) 

 AnywaHere is another card for Christmas, made with my Penny Black stamp (made a similar one a few days ago). I have coloured the image with Sakura gel pens and the big snowflake is my new MS punch. The small gold snowflakes were embossed after being punched. I have distressed the image with TH brushed corduroy. The printed paper and ribbon is from my stash.

Hello sweet bloggers,

Here is another White on White card which I will enter in LIM for their current challenge. Just a few hours to go before it closes so better try and make it on time. I love this very simple creation which requires no explaining at all so off I go to enter.

Wish you a very happy weekend,

Monica 

Peace, hope, love, light, joy and cheer

Hello sweet bloggers,

It sure is a busy life out here but my day cannot be done without a wee bit of blogging.

Here is my card to show for today and can you believe that I may receive an order for 16 cards  for this design???

The snowflakes have been punched out of browny gold paper and the ribbon is from my stash. The metallic centre of the MS snowflake came from Sandra.

White and Gold

Hello sweet bloggers,

A very warm welcome to my newest followers - so nice to see them grow.

Here is a quick post from me to show you another Christmas card. The sentiment is from Penny Black - gosh, I seem to tirelessly enjoy using it. The flourish like stamp below the sentiment is from Prima. The brownish gold paper is from my stash as well as the cord and ribbon. The sequins were sent to me by dear Sandra all the way from the UK.
