Christmas Gift Tag III

My next Christmas gift tag is also upcycled.
Tag die: Spellbinders.
Image: Beccy.

I glued a scrap of coffee dyed paper to the tag in order to hide the printing on the cardboard.

Then I used a stencil (Tim Holtz) and yellow distress ink to give the background some beams from the shining star.
I finished it with dark blue distress ink on the edges and around the image.

This tag fits with Beccy's Challenge Day 11 "Create a background".

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.

Journaling Card For My Christmas Journal

This is a simple, thin A6 card, 200 gr.
I did not glue anything on the backside to enforce it.
The scoreboard was used for the lines around the edges.
The image is from Gi Kerr's "Shabby blue Christmas".
I wanted to give the card a cold look,
so I only used light blue Versacolor ink around the edges and for the trees,
 and a little silver glitter on the icicles.
Unfortunately the picture does not show the glitter.
For the trees I used a selfmade stencil.

Notepad

As I have told earlier, I love upcycling / recycling.
For this notepad I used cardstock from a food package,
Amazon packing paper to hide the prints on the cardstock,
leftovers from coffee stained papers for the pages
and a little strip of pink paper to hide the staples and to keep it all together.

Image and sentiment: Beccy.
Spellbinders Circle Die. Tim Holtz Stencil.

Autumn / Fall Journal

 Yesterday I finished this journal. I had so much fun making it!
The patterned papers and images are mostly from Gi, a couple of them from Beccy.
The papers for journaling are coffee stained.
I also made some tags and note books for writing.
The autumn leaves on most of the pages are made with
Memory Box "Falling Maple" stencil.
I also used two maple leaves punches: Artoz (the bigger one) and one unbranded.
Closure: Seam binding coloured with Dylusions Sprays.

On the page to the right  I used gesso to get a little structure.

Behind this tag there is a little note book

Greeting Card, OLC

Over at The Paper Players there is a color challenge: Use Red, yellow and blue.

I made a simple greeting card
using selfmade stencils, inks and pens.

Punches for the stencils:
EK Success and Gütermann Flowers.

Versacolor and Distress Inks.
Red, blue and yellow pens for the doodling.

I thought to use this card for a birthday.
But there is no sentiment on it, so it may be used for different occasions.
