Journal Pages II

 I hope it is ok to post this picture.
It shows the middle pages from my red and green Christmas journal.
It is made with a stencil from Penny Black.
I had hoped to get my journal ready before deadline on Beccy's Holiday Challenge.
But no. The decoration on these pages has to wait.

A Journal Tag

Due to fibromyalgia pains I have not been crafting for a while.
But now I hope I will be able to continue the work on the Christmas journals.
Just now I am working on two different journals, one blue and one traditional red/green.
This tag is for the red one.

Again the tag was made out of a food box. Tag die: Spellbinders.
For the background I used snippets of coffee stained paper and a copy of an old book page,
strips of "gold"paper, gesso and Stabilo Metallic pen, also gold.
The angel is taken form an old Christmas card,
and the little twig of holly is a bit of an image from Beccy.

Origami Box

Origami is new for me. Wether my eyes nor my fingers are used to that accurate work.
But I hope I will learn more by practicing, so I'll try again.

I made this little box / pouch to store Christmas images which I am going to use later.
Through the whole year there are Christmas challenges popping up,
and I want to have my small images and sentiments gathered.

I used a coffee stained paper, size A 4.
To know this is a box for Christmas images (I also made boxes for other themes),
I decorated it with a holly image from Beccy and a red ribbon.
Heart punch: Atelier Terziev.
Distress ink: Wallnut Stain.

Closure: a "Christmas red" ribbon

Images waiting to be used

I glued the ribbon to the bottom with a punched heart.

The word "Peace" was written with a black pen.

Ornament, Christmas Gift Tag

Here comes another upcycled tag from me.
When I want to make something out of a little box, I nearly always end up with a tag.
For a card the pieces are too small.

The bauble and the holly on this tag are images from Beccy. I divided the holly image to get only one leaf on one of the sides.
Coffee stained paper. Gold glitter on the bauble. Red and brown Stabilo markers.

Christmas Gift Tag Number 8

I think this is the first year since Beccy started her
Month of Holiday Cards Challenge 10 years ago,
that I have not posted something every single day.
This year is a bit difficult for me.
Some days are good, other days not at all.
And crafting, which is my dearest hobby, must be set aside.
When the body strikes, I have to give up.

But today is a good day,
and I managed to make something that wasn't too difficult.

I have still got some pieces of my cake box, so here comes another gift tag.

Images: Beccy.
Some days ago I ordered the "Holly days", so the holly sprig is from that set.

Coffee stained paper (of course 😏), Vintage Photo Distress ink.

Paper twine.

Christmas Card With Stencil And Scraps

The papers I used for the die cuts on this card are just scraps from the cards I made the last days: Red, gold and two green colours.
For the background I used a Penny Black "Holly" stencil and dark green distress ink on the white card stock. So there is no mat on this card. The card is double.

Dies used:

Marianne Design: Candles and Pine twigs; Papirdesign: Holly.

"Gold" glitter, red pen.

Tool: Cuttlebug.

Unfortunately the colours look darker on the photo than irl.
