Christmas Journal Card

 Last week Beccy asked me in a comment if my tags are thought for a journal
or for a Christmas marked.
The tags and cards I have made so far I hope to sell on a market.

But today I show a journaling card that I made for my new Christmas Journal.
I want to make a journal just for me. 😊

As so many of the things I make, also this one is upcycled. 

The cardstock is from an ice box,
The papers are snippets from a coffee stained paper
and a copy of a music paper.
Image: Gi (Happiness in Crafting).
I also used gesso, stamp, water colour pencils, distress ink and a blue marker for the dots.
This card is a little out of my comfort zone, but I like it.
(On this photo the gold around the image is too yellow.)

Flamazing

Amazing? - or Flamazing?
- for this birthday girl I think that is just the same.

The image and the sentiment are from Beccy's Place.
I used a patterned paper from Sigel for the mat.
The little pink panel is a leftover from another cardstock which I embossed.
Embossing folder: Lifestyle.
I also used gesso on the embossed paper to take away the shiny surface.

Dies: Papirdesign label for the sentiment and Spellbinders tag for the image panel.
Versacolor inks, glitter glue, Stabilo marker.

Birthday Card

For this birthday card I used:
White double card A6.
The pink cardstock is very shiny,
so I embossed it and "painted" it with gesso to lighten the shiny surface.
Image and sentiment: Beccy, 
Embossing folder: Lifestyle,
Dies: Spellbinders "Scalloped Oval", Papirdesign "Label",
"Silver" half pearls, Versacolor and Distress inks.

Tag. Roses

 My second upcycled tag this time has got an image from Beccy.
The butterfly is taken from a Friday Freebie from Gi Kerr.
Tag die: Spellbinders.
The backing paper is a copy from a page in a theological book from my husband's library.
On this tag I used gesso and distress inks. Stickles on the butterfly's wings.

Snippets, Snippets, Snippets

I made this card without having any idea of what it would look like at last. 😂 

I have got lots of snippets and try to get rid of them in a creative way.

So here is the first (wild) result of my effort.
There are still lots of snippets lying around!

I used:
Snippets from coffee coloured paper, book pages, packing paper, designer papers from Gi and Lozzy, scraps from different die cuts etc. I even used the "holes" after making tags.
Gesso, stamp, green and red pens.
